I feel like I blinked and the school summer holiday passed by. After 6 weeks of having my beautiful girl at home during the day, she's now returned to school. No longer the young ones, but to the heady heights of year 8. New school uniform, hours spent putting in name tags, shoes shined and buffed and back my baby went yesterday.
As much as I miss her smiling little face during the day, it's also good to get back into a routine and have some structure.
Today I managed 2 loads of washing, a walk around the park with the dogs, planted my cyclamens for winter and cooked a lovely roast dinner.
I wish I had lots of photos to show my lovely day, but I do have some pictures to share from my crafting makes.
Feeling all autumnal... falling leaves make me think about hedgehogs. Do you like these cuties?
Hattie and Herby, knitted in scrunchy, sparkly eyelash chunky yarn. I didn't find it the easiest yarn to work with, hard to see where I was up to, but I do think it gives a lovely effect and plan to make some more.
I'm off to have a nosey around and see what everyone else's up to.
Take care

Thank you, they are cuties xx
DeleteI have some eyelash yarn to make Tomte beards with for the dreaded C word, but I'm not looking forward to using it! I'll have to choose a day carefully when nobody will interrupt and I can concentrate!
ReplyDeleteLove these cute critters, though, so if all goes well I may try another project with it!
Oh wow, those beards will look fantastic xx
DeleteLove those hedgehogs

Thank you, I have some other colours to try out xx
DeleteLovely to see you back Cheryl and to know that you had a good summer! Your hedgies are very cute indeed, I don't think that I have seen sparkly ones before! xx
ReplyDeleteThank you, always good to have some sparkle xx
DeleteI have to say that I am not finding it all that easy this time round. Usually I am really sad to see the kids go, but happy to get back into my routine, this time, I am just a little too blue for my liking. I am really missing my little kiddies, but for the first time today I am feeling just a little better. I hope you enjoy your weekend xoxo
ReplyDeleteHope you continue to feel better, at least the first week is a short one. xx
DeleteAwww, those hedgehogs are so cute. Eleanor had weeks off this summer after her GCSEs so it was very strange having the house to myself again yesterday. I also did two loads of washing, took Archie for a walk and cooked a roast dinner, lol.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it good to have such a productive day, of course it means I deserve a crafting day for myself today! xx
DeleteThey are brilliant - very professional. What super yarn.
