Just an update to include here what I'm working on at the moment, because it'll be a while before anything gets finished. Usually I get to spend a few hours a night working on my knitting but lately I've been going to bed soon after I put my daughter to sleep and am not getting any crafty work done during the day while I'm with her.
So I am at the seaming stage with my Traditional Ted with only the joining up of pieces left. I had great difficulty with the ears, and trying to get perfect placement, and the nose! I had to undo it maybe 3 times and I even tried embroidering the nose instead of sewing it on but it looked too flat. But in the end it all worked out and ears and nose are securely in place.
Poor little fella waiting to be completed.
Also my sister gave birth to a gorgeous little baby boy on 5th of September, 2012 and I have started on a baby blanket for him, I saw alot of beautiful patterns but I had to go for something mindless and easy because there are always interruptions at my house and I need to be able to pick up where I left of at any time. So I chose the Sunny Baby Blanket which looks pretty in the simple pattern and easy to memorise which is a bonus.
Here is my progress so far.
Poor teddy. He's been waiting for so long now, "Please put me together already!".
