'Birthday' fabrics sent to me by my former flatmate in Philly.


And other good stuff too.


Including these fabulous drawing pins. I love that she sent me these. They are from Target and can't have cost more than a couple of dollars, yet they are perfect and I love them and she knew that I would.



amamama's book bag. There are pockets on both sides of the outside and the denim means that it will be really strong and practical. The babycord is very strokable, too.



But this is what I really love - the lining and the inside pocket. So much fun.



There are no words. *swoons*



Detail of the knotwork.



The pages are A4 folded in half lengthways in a mix of cream, pale pink and pale green with randomly applied gold leaf hearts. The journal is hand stitched. The cover is bound with leather. It is all beautifully done with so much care and thought. It is perfect.




Socks I made last weekend for Sock Madness. The pattern is written so that you knit the leg and foot first in a tube and go back to do the heel afterwards. Halfway through the first I decided to do the heels in the contrast stripy yarn. Halfway through the second I realised I could do the toes in the contrast yarn too. Now I can't decide which one to go back and redo. Thoughts? More pics (with close ups of heels and toes) here.
