Crocheting again

Sorry I haven't been on here for a while. I know that there are a couple of religious followers that check my blog every day so I thought I'd write this post so as not to disappoint them anymore than I may have done already!

Well it's been a whirlwind of a last couple of weeks here. The puppies are now over 5 weeks old so the care that the require has stepped up a lot. With the early morning demanding feeds several times a day, I can't think that it's too dissimilar to having a baby especially when they wake you at 4.30 in the morning!

But apart from that, they are such a joy to have and I'm loving it as you can see above! And that's just as well because at the moment, only one of them has been sold despite adverts up for them on a couple of sites. I'm sure I'll get them sold eventually but at the moment, it's looking like we might have them for a while!

College has also been a busy time as I've just been in the throws of final piece week for my latest assignment. I'm keen to show you my piece which is now all finished so watch out for that in another post.

And I don't know how, but somehow I've managed to actually pick up my crochet hook again (after blowing the cobwebs of it as I haven't crocheted or knitted for ages) and create a little gift for someone at the college who was unfortunately leaving. 

 Flicking through crochet books, I found this little owl that I've always wanted to make so did for this lady at college.

I was surprised at how I hadn't lost the flow of crocheting at all. I guess it's one of those skills that you don't lose, like riding a bike! It was great to be doing some crocheting again. It took me a nice evening watching some catch up TV and I think the gift went down well.

Well I think that's all from me at the moment. I'll put up a post about my final piece soon I promise so keep your eyes peeled.
