hello, yes I still exist
The thing I love about the onset of winter is that it becomes Knitting Season.
I'm invariably disappointed with things I knit for myself (stupid perfectionist tendencies...) unless it's small things like scarves where the imperfections don't show but love to knit for other people.
It's baby season right now (one recent birth and about 4 others to come) so I've a fair few things to be knitted in the near future for those birth presents and my housemate is soon to be the recipient of a beanie to cover his newly shorn head.
I might even have time to squeeze in a scarf or so for myself...

Nice little blog ya got here... Your a bit funny....
It's been a while since you blogged. How are you?
Baby Season is upon us. I just got my hunting license too. They are so tender and make for great eatin'.
But really, can you knit a black eyepatch. That's something I could wear to work and then sell them to the parents when all the kids want to wear them and then run into objects because they loose all depth perception.

(Oh hallo Kranki, you do pop up in the most unexpected places)
So. Pirate lass. Still blogging somewhere?

Davy Jones' Overlocker
I like pirates and I like making stuff. I was taught to sew and knit as soon as my fingers could hold the needles. It was a way of keeping me out of trouble. It was suggested that I become an engineer, so I went to see what that meant. I did a fashion degree. I did a physics degree. Now I get crafty to keep my sanity from my day job. It almost works. Here's some of the stuff I make. I also make things for other people. If you want me to make you stuff, email me.
