I am pleased so say, that as promised, I am now finally posting again and it's another free pattern too!

I used this pattern to make a lovely little evening bag, but with different wool and accessories I'm sure it could be adapted to suit many occasions.  

To download the pattern, click on this link to be transferred to my new website: Download Glamour Puss.

If anyone has any problems with the pattern at all, please do let me know and I'll do what I can to help.

Here are some pictures, which will hopefully whet your appetite...

Back to School

Please see my new website for new posts and downloads.

I'm sorry to say I've been shockingly bad at posting lately and it's all down to the school holidays.  Having a little one who has suddenly discovered the computer didn't help either!  (Mummy, why are you on my computer??)  Anyway, now that school and some kind of routine is now (thankfully) back in place, hopefully I can start posting again.

I have a least been working on a few projects behind the scenes and am glad to say I have a couple of new patterns that I'm almost ready to share too.  I'm also currently working on a little home project which will become my first free crochet pattern when I'm all done.  So, keep coming by as there will be more very soon....

What, in this world, is cuter than a knitted cupcake?  Not a lot, in my opinion and so I have been on the quest to create the perfect cupcake!  I have tried a few patterns, some too much work to sew together, some too straight and upright, others too small and flat...  So, in an attempt to solve this invented problem of mine, I have been clicking away and coming up with my own little pattern to put forward into the world of knitted cakes.  Here are the results so far...

Ummm, yum scrum!

And...

 

These were my first attempts!

I'm rather pleased with them as they are knitted in the round and require no seaming. (hoorah!)  The only thing is there is a little fiddly bit where you have to pick up stitches to get the 'cake inside of the case' look, but as this was exactly what I wanted and couldn't find on other patterns, I felt it was well worth the extra effort.  (Hopefully you with agree!)

So, if you like the look of these beauties and would like to make your own then click here to go to my new website for the free pattern.

As well as enjoying my first year with a real, living vegetable patch, I'm also loving knitting/crocheting my own fruit and veg too from '100 flowers to knit & crochet' by Lesley Stanfield  (which also includes a few other things)...

So far I've done peas 'n' carrots for another veggie growing friend

Crocheted some ab-so-lutely adorable radishes

And, of course, some beautiful cherries

Very pleasing!

Also in the pipeline are some asparagus, but they are fiddly little devils, so pictures will have to follow soon...
