Finally something.....Bert Bear!


It's been so long since I posted! Lots of stuff going on, we had Christmas, then we had Finland (Anniversary / honeymoon) and now it's almost May? I haven't been shy of the knitting, Since February I have been teaching children to knit at school, as part of an after-school club and we are working towards knitting a cosy for one of the wooden beams in our atrium! Photo's to follow!

In the meantime, I'm working on Bertie Bear, another creature from 'The Odd-Bod Bunch by Donna Wilson' He is a cutie!

Her
e is what I have so far.....
One side of him, minus an ear!

WestFest

Well, Westfest was a fantastic weekend, we sold lots of knitted cakes, flowers, tea cosy's and egg cosy's to the lovely people of West Didsbury. We enjoyed being part of Silver Apples 'Village fete', ate far too much cake, drank too many Pimms & lemonades and generally over-indulged!

We even got snapped for the local rag, which I will post a copy of as soon as I see it myself!
Here's a link to some more photos from the day
