The beanie ended up felting beautifully, but it's just too big and slightly fluted. I'm thinking it will make a fairly decent cloche-style hat for moi! Way to turn a FAIL into a WIN!

In other news, it's been birthday season, again. Vanilla cupcakes, a princess cake, a pavlova, all as requested by the children. There've been a few misty eyed moments and a battle for ownership of the remote control helicopter. Some of the best perks of being a parent are playing with the toys (it's called 'making sure it works'!) and watching all the latest Pixar movies without looking like a weirdo at the cinema.
Oh, and the love!
Oh my, look at those cupcakes! Turquoise?! You had me at 'hello'!
ReplyDeleteI must admit I too am looking forward to the toys and movie thing - I do it anyway, but now I have a legitimate excuse other than being a big ol' kid at heart!
Squeeeeeee!
Thanks so much for the beautiful comment on my blog too xxxxxx
The cupcakes were even more vivid.Instagram really calmed the colour down! I have noticed your love of turquoise...:)
ReplyDeleteI feel, especially when it comes to babies, women have to stick together. You're totally welcome.
