Craft Challenge #2 - Scrap Booking

The knitting has gone well, not sure if I can count my first challenge as completed as I haven't finished, but I want to knit a really long scarf - so it may take me a while! But as you can see it's not a bad first attempt and i'm quite proud.


This month i'm really busy, so i'm setting myself a not too complicated task to do some scrap booking. I love digital cameras, don't get me wrong, but there is something fabulous about flicking through your pics - So i'm going to start a scrap book for this year, obviously this will be ongoing also - but my challenge is to get started and add a bit of flair to the pages! 

Wish me luck, Love

It's a Square!

Well i'm just so happy, my first attempts at knitting have been very successful! Earlier I passed a newsagents and saw this knitting magazine for 99p, I grabbed it without hesitation (there's not much you can get for 99p these days) and off I gleefully headed home. Now a few hours later and I've learnt to cast on and how to do a knit stitch, whoop! Knitted 40's snood here I come....
The Purl Stitch is next, this one sounds just right for Miss Curly, any tips for a beginner knitter,
