Little Purple Cardi

Kinda' got used to not blogging for a few days with the giveaway so its been hard getting back into it.

Here's a little cardi I made for Smem, as she hasn't got to many and a high proportion are pink.
Its a pattern called Cardigan Rose that I found on Ravelry. It as a quick knit and Smem seems to like it which is good.


On sad news, got a negative feedback in my Etsy shop this week. Someone who bought a pattern in February only sent me a message this week to say they never received it. So I immediately sent her on the original email with the pattern attached as before and also explained about checking in her junk mail folder for it. She got the pattern but still left a negative feedback, with no comment about why.
Is it really my fault if she didn't contact me for nearly four months to say she didn't receive the pattern? If I bought a pattern and didn't get it I would be on to the person after 2-3 days.

Rant over!

Boo! I bought something off of etsy and gave it two weeks with nothing, so i finally contacted the lady and she was so sorry she forgot and sent me something extra. It was super cool! I am not sure why someone would wait that long to contact you? Rather rude. Anywho I got some great info on Irish heirlooms from the seed company info you gave me. Thanks! (also I still buy from shops that have one or two negative feeds as this sort of thing happens often so I wouldn't worry about it too much)

It seems more than a little strange that she waited so long to say something. I see no fault with you, try not to dwell on it. :(

May Giveaway Day

*** This giveaway is now closed *** I read only last weekend about the May Giveaway Day on the SewMamaSew blog. Its such a cool idea so I decided to take part. Up for grabs are these two little cats. I made them as favours for Smem's birthday but made too many. Two winners will be chosen at random on June 1st and I am willing to ship internationally as they're only small and are very light. Comment away! (but please make sure that I can get your email from your blogger profile so that I can contact you if you win) Good Luck!

100th Post - Piggywig (free pattern)

Image
I was going to post about how I connected with my domestic goddess and baked muffins this morning but as it is my 100th post I thought I would share a pattern with my readers. This is Piggywig. I only started him this afternoon so he is a super quick knit if you needed a present in a hurry. He's about 12cm tall. You'll need straight 2.75mm needles, a darning needle, some polyester stuffing and oddments of yarn in pink, blue, green, cream and black. Gauge is not too important - I knit at about 9sts:10rows:1 inch - just make sure that your knitting is nice and tight so the stuffing doesn't show through. Body Using pink, cast on 30 sts. Mark the centre of the cast on sts. P 1 row. Next row: Inc K-wise into every st - 60 sts. Beginning with a P row, st-st 7 rows. Next row: (K2, K2tog) to end - 45 sts. P 1 row. Break off pink and join on blue. Beginning with a K row, st-st 10 rows. Mark the centre of the last blue row. Break off blue and join on green and cream. Work 10 rows
