Holidaying in the Isle of Man

Holidaying in the Isle of Man


Although I have been on holiday, my crafting hasn't stopped.  I've been knitting cashmere silk poppies for the Poppy Appeal.  I managed 7 before my hands got too sore.

I helped the grandchildren make some Hallowe'en decorations and made them each a spooky skull sweetie box and a Hallowe'en card.

We went to a Hallowe'en party where Mia showed off the handwarmers I had knitted her.  Her cousin Emily asked if I could make her a pair in Manchester City colours.  I didnt have the pattern with me so I improvised. (the pattern will be available as a free download on www.Ravelry.com from Tuesday 5th November, when i get home.

9 hour journey tomorrow so i'm hoping to get another half dozen poppies done.
