Dolls Pram Blanket pattern
Spent this week designing knitting patterns to sell on ebay. Good fun designing and knitting them, not so much fun typing them all up.

Heart Shaped oven mitt
Heart shaped oven mitt to match one of the aprons I've made, and a good way of using up the scraps of left over fabric
Crochet fingerless gloves
Pair of crocheted fingerless gloves, done from a pattern in a new French craft magazine. Very easy, just a rectangle of trebles, could easily be adapted to fit any size.

Childrens fingerless gloves
Promised to knit granddaughter Aurianne a pair of fingerless gloves and here they are. I couldn't find a pattern for children's fingerless gloves, so had to adapt a pattern for mittens.
Calico Rag Doll
I love making rag dolls, and this is the latest creation. She has very long arms and legs and stands 64 cm tall. I think she's the best one I've made so far, as her facial features have turned out so well. They're by far the most difficult part if you're no good at drawing, like me.

Apron and Bag
Youngest daughter Laura kindly sent me some of her fabric stash (mostly upholstery weight cotton) from the US, so today I made this apron and tote bag.
The apron's a great design, just one long strap, threaded through the side pieces, so the neck strap can be adjusted to the size you need. So much easier than sewing all the straps on, will do this one again.
