Hello, I hope that your new year has got off to a good start. Toby has started back at college and so I'm just beginning to find my feet after the Christmas break. I am trying to ignore all of the household chores that have built up and instead have spent my morning… Continue reading Anniversary give-away no. 1

An autumn giveaway
Back on September 3rd I celebrated my 15th blogging anniversary. In previous years (up until 2018) I have held a little celebratory giveaway of finished animals, but the last few years I've been so busy with writing patterns that I've not actually managed to fully finish many animals (I'll show you my… Continue reading An autumn giveaway
Time for a giveaway
Back on September 3rd it was my 12th anniversary of starting this blog, and in keeping with tradition (which admittedly lapsed a bit last year) I'm going to celebrate (a little belatedly) with a giveaway. In this crate are fourteen little animals that have been patiently waiting for me to finish them… Continue reading Time for a giveaway
Ten years and a giveaway
Ten years ago today, on September 3rd 2006 my four year old son Toby was about to start school. It was a big deal for me because not only is he severely autistic but I was ending a six year period of being a constant stay-at-home mum and I wasn't entirely sure what to do… Continue reading Ten years and a giveaway
A Christmassy giveaway
It pains me to say it, but I have to admit defeat on finishing off the batch of seasonal themed animals. Time has not been on my side and I have a heap of unfinished animals here and not enough hours left to finish them before last posting dates arrive. So instead I'm going to… Continue reading A Christmassy giveaway
a ‘better late than never’ giveaway
Firstly, thank you so much for all of the messages about my finger. Happily the hefty dose of antibiotics did the trick and kept me out of hospital and I now have a normal looking finger again which can bend and, most importantly, knit (hooray!). Never again will I have complete faith in… Continue reading a ‘better late than never’ giveaway
Giveaway time, at last :)
As mentioned over a month ago, I have just celebrated the start of my 9th blogging year! I published my first blog post in September 2006 on the day before Toby started school - he was still 4 years old and much, much tinier than he is today! Amy was 6 and loved Disney princesses,… Continue reading Giveaway time, at last 🙂
7 years
Hello again. It's nice to be back now that the children are at school again. It's been longer than I planned since I popped in here and I had intended to write another couple of blog posts over the school summer hols but circumstances conspired to keep me away from the computer. I will write… Continue reading 7 years
a give-away
Well, the animals are now fully armed (though not dangerous in the least little bit) and they have their tails and buttons attached in the appropriate places too. So to celebrate the start of my 7th year of blogging I'm going to give one of them away. To enter just leave a comment below.… Continue reading a give-away
Giveaway time
I've been pretty disorganised this year and I missed my traditional giveaway to celebrate the start of my 6th year of blogging at the beginning of September. So instead I thought we'd have a little pre-Christmas giveaway and here is my giveaway bunny girl Ullie. She's made from a yarn blended from alpaca and… Continue reading Giveaway time
