I got given this Stitch bobble head for My car a few years back and so I started making Him accessories.
I love giving Him the little knitted Pumpkin on the 1st of September and then the crochet Witches hat on 1st October.
It's the little things that make My little heart happy.

Had a fantastic day at Yarndale on Saturday.
It's the furthest I've travelled to a show but it was worth it.
There was soo many stalls. Loads of sellers that I recognised and definitely more for Me to follow.
I managed to get a few things off My to get list and of course some things that Were just too pretty to resist.
Also managed to get hold of a map of shows for next year so already planning Our next trips. Need to get saving and also planning projects so I'm not just buying pretty things without purpose..
All the fibre from this haul (except the mini skeins inside the plastic cat) have projects in mind.
I definitely have a lot of work to do with Spooky season upon Us and Christmas not far behind.

I also got to go to the Scarborough Stitching show held by The Stitching Lady in August.
I found some lovely Autumnal sock yarn(That I was so excited to wind up before I'd even taken a picture)
I also found some more bouclé yarn.
The Pumpkin embroidery was a must for My Halloween soul.
I then grabbed the Spirited Jumper pattern as a last minute decision.
My Aunty had found out about another craft fair so We popped in on the way home. I found the Felt hedghog kit and couldn't resist how cute it was.

I had a fun trip to Newcastle for the North East Wool show back in August.
I saw a few vendors I recognised from last year plus a load of new ones.
I stocked up on fabric and thread from Kate's Kloths to make some more wreaths.
Finally found some Red 4ply to make Turtle clones gloves They've been asking for.
I found some Boucle yarn from Attic Spin Dye and on the mannequin next to it was a free pattern from revelry that only takes 1 skein of yarn for the smaller sizes. Decided to give it a go and bought 2 skeins just in case.
There was also a lovely Lady from Kath Andrews designs wearing a gorgeous shawl in Purple and Blue hues and I just had to get the pattern.
I always pick up cards from different companies to look back on and this time there was some for a company focused on spinning and weaving which is 2 things I would love to get into when I have the time,money and space.

After taking a year and a half off work to look after My Dad I am officially back.
My savings have taken a huge chunk from being off work,moving house and We also lost Our gorgeous boy JD(pictured).
So now My Dad is doing better I have more time to focus.
I have loads of things I want to get back to as well as new things to try.
