Restocking the store today.







I'll be restocking the wool section of the store today. I'll be adding the wool throughout today so you can preview before it goes live at 8.00pm GMT It is a small restocking as I am concentrating on Buy British Month and WAHM collaboration month.

Louise your longies are finished and lanolising.

Carolyn, your parcel was received.

Louise, your longies are well under way. I really like this colourway. I may have to make something for Nathaniel in this colourway :)

I finished the set made from wool gifted to me by Kermitgirl on CNA. I made the Ashford cowl as mentioned in an earlier blog and teamed it with a pair of fetching in a mix of the main colour and orange trim. I like how they have turned out. I wore them tonight on a brisk walk in the autumn mist. Very warm, snuggly and soft!

Selfish show off post :)

Cassies longies arrived today. It was so lovely putting a pair on her that I hadn't made. I should spoil her more often.

A lil update.


I've been quietly knitting, crocheting and dyeing. I'll post more piccies over the next week. Todays pic's are of my latest customs and two gifts, the first is a personalised tealight from http://www.smiggles.co.uk/ a surprise gift that really touched my heart. Thankyou Stacey. The second gift was a skein of plums and oranges, as blogged about previously. I indulged myself by making the Ashford Cowl. http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/sources/nicola-faull-designs

Cassie update.

As my regulars will know, my youngest daughter was born with a congenital lung condition. You were all very supportive whilst I was pregnant with her and comforted me whilst she was in the nicu fighting for her life.

I have kept you up to date by email, but am finding it hard to keep track of who I have answered and who I have not.

We had a full review this week. We had been hoping that her surgery would be put off until she was three years old, but the cysts are just too big, the risk of leaving them too great. So the operation has been brought forward. She needs the op now, but keyhole surgery is not available at her age. They don't want to risk the full, open surgery as the recovery rate is not good. So, we have to wait until she reaches keyhole surgery age - 5 months from now.

In the mean time, I may need to ask for patience from my custom customers currently on my list if we are called to the hospital. I think that I won't re-open my customs until the operation is done to be fair to both my precious daughter and my customers.

I will honor all orders and co-ops already arranged.

Thankyou all for your continued support.
Mich x.

Thankyou Ali.
