Re: Show your (craft)work
I'm obviously now totally stuck on the next bit but that's a problem for tomorrow.

Re: Show your (craft)work
Can you post the link. I'll have a look. I sounds a bit like a pattern I used to make a baby cardigan.

Re: Show your (craft)work
I've only got the PDF version as of a paid for pattern. I think I've got it now, the last who wrote the pattern did a video for us. Thank you though!

Oh gosh, I'm sorry it's problematic, Shoe! It's probably beyond me in that case.

I'm on plants and flower pots now. My neck has snapped.

Baa! You made a mini palm!
By the time anyone else tries the jumper I'll have it mastered. I'm on version 2 of row 3 at the moment. ;)

You must have great eyesight Baa!
This is garish beyond words but the intended wearer loves it. The back is all the leopard print and she’s been eyeing it up since I bought it.

I knew it. We share a love of a bold pattern.

Re: Show your (craft)work
I mentioned on the daily thread that I’ve reacted to something. I don’t usually buy yarn with wool in it, but missed that the Aran for my socks contained some. I didn’t notice when doing the socks but as it was a 400g cone, I’d started a small jumper for a Christmas present but I’ve had to give up as picking it up again has set off the reaction again.

Re: Show your (craft)work
It’s my just desserts for not checking. #badvegan ;)
I rushed to get those tops/cardigans finished for a baby I thought was due in February and there’s still no sign of him. I hope you can find the time/motivation!
It’s been a repurposing weekend. 3/4 length leggings for Elvis out of a top of mine, a dress for Sproglette from one of mine and a top for her out of a cock-up (I’d part sewn a tunic for me before realising I’d messed up the strips when cutting out). There’s also 4 pairs of scrap pants once I’m done - they like homemade ones for sleeping in.

Re: Show your (craft)work
I love the scrap pants.
I'm still working on my jumper, it's going very slowly.
I would show you my show progress but I think we're full up for photos.

Re: Show your (craft)work
I've just come across these Worry Monsters, and thought people might like to have a look. The patterns are for knit and crochet, and the monsters are used by therapists to help children to talk about difficult experiences.

Re: Show your (craft)work
Ooo, thanks, Morgs. I’ve emailed the SENCO at school to see if she would like a couple to test out.
