Notes

12th August: I am super proud of this. It needs a good block to loosen up the fairisle bit, but it is ace. Photos soon!

9th August: A very good friend has had a baby girl, and I am going all out to make her something special. It’s the Topaz pattern but has a moss stitch band and then little dollies around the hem instead of the pattern stipulated.
