A head full

I thought you might like to know a little bit about what I'm doing right now.

Well, right now, I'm blogging, but you know what I mean.  I mean, in the crafty sense, what I'm working on right now.  I normally only show things when they're all finished and done so I thought it might be interesting to try a different approach.

So here's what's on my needles now.

I'm working on a beautiful cardigan, for me myself and I, called Velynda and it's by Bonnie Marie Burns.  I've never made one of her patterns before but I getting on swimmingly with this one. 

I wanted to make it to go with a new dress/top that I got for Christmas and I think it's going to work well.

I don't make cardigans or jumpers very often because they take sooo long.  Although I don't know why I say that when I'm quite happy to make blankets, which can take ages, so it doesn't make any sense.  I guess I'm just a walking contradiction.

I've not been minding the slower 'cardigan' pace up to now, but just this week my mind has started to explode with ideas.

The work I'm putting into making a Pretty Crafty Home is kick starting a lot of fresh ideas.  I have a happy event (not mine!) coming later this year to work towards and my notebooks pages are getting filled with scribbled ideas.

Some new yarn has arrived.

And, I'm playing with other colour combinations.

Oh, and there's some things happening with fabric too.

It's times like this when I just can't work fast enough!
