No cards to share

So its nearly the end of January and would you believe I haven't made any cards yet this year.  I've been too busy working and knitting!  I found some wool my mum had purchased years ago and found a pattern that's perfect BUT I'm just starting on the first sleeve, having finished the back and front, to find that I don't think I'll have enough wool and they don't make this wool anymore!  My brain is in overdrive trying to find ways around this without having to rip the whole thing.  They do make the wool but in a heavier weight so I might end up with chunky sleeves. Or I might just rip it up and start again - WHAT A SHAME!

OMG

Happy New Year!  OMG  I can't believe its 6 months since I updated my blog.  I'm so bad.  To be honest I've been working hard at my day job so the card making has taken a back seat.  Also, I've started knitting again so the few months before Christmas was a knitting spectacular - gorgeous jumper for my step granddaughter and a handbag for my sister in law.  Really want to do the handbag for myself and have the perfect wool to do it.

My new year's promise is to try to keep my blog up dated at least weekly.
