I have been wanting to make this for a while, and finally got around to it. I love this jumper I got from Urban Outfitters a few years ago, however, it has a few holes in the neck and is a little bit tight these days, so I decided to turn it into a cushion cover....


Ive had an addition to my craft space, a EC-1 Toyota Sewing Machine! This was donated to me from my auntie, who doesnt have any use for it anymore, I can't wait to get started!
I thought I may need a rest from present projects but I decided that I wanted to try out the Eco- wool I picked up before xmas. I was going to make mittens out of it, but it wasnt really soft or stretchy enough for that, so I thought due to its tough quality it would make a nice purse! Its a few of my friends birthdays in January so I may make a few of them, with different patterns and sizes.
This is a scarf for my mum, knitted with SIRDAR, Kid Mohair. I did it with two colours plum and toffee.
I also added a ribbon trim on each end to finish it off!
I bought this fabric a few months ago, hoping to make an apron out of it, but realised I didn't have enough of it, so instead I made a nice little cosy for my ever increasing stash of knitting needles, I used an old biscuit tin and simply glued on the fabric! I love bird patterns sooooo much!!!
I've gone for some eco-wrapping paper from Paperchase, seen as I'm on a 'saving the world' vibe of late, it also goes with my vintage/gothic aesthetic, I hope its not too dramatic for a fuzzy warm holiday such as xmas???!!!
