new year new beginnings

It's almost a year since I started this blog  . I started it with very little thought about what I wanted it to be . I was a newbie with a hook I look back at some of my early work and shudder  equally I have had some proud moments  . I though today is perfect chance to look back and the things I am.most pleased with.

Then there is the ones not so pleased with

And of course the unfinished

But all in all  it's been a productive year I have learned a lot and ready for new challenges  although not sure what they will be lol

 Any way however you spending this year I have one wish for you all

Technicolor dream socks

Still.under the weather and needed something to brighten my day

Am.sick.of Xmas red and green so when simply crochet magazine turned up with granny stripe socks I couldn't resist

It's a greAt pattern and the sock only take a few hours each  here is the result

 Here they are modelled by my son

He thinks they suit him.and should be his . I  not so sure 

.what do you think?

when you wish upon a star

I have neglected you all.My son has been ill and this was swiftly followed by me. The joys of being a mum.hey

And here it is  on the tree

 Not sure how much I will post between now and the big day so will say now I am.wishing you all a merry Xmas
