little bobbins knits - episode fifteen

Happy Monday everyone.

Thank you so much to everyone who has been in touch over the last week, to everyone who has joined the Ravelry group and to the lovely people who have subscribed on YouTube.

This week I am a little distracted and my brain isn't cooperating, apologies for that! I show you some works in progress, no finished objects but a little bit of spinning and some lovely things. I talk to you about the little-along and the cup cosy swap and get far to distracted by squishable hexipuffs!!

A Beekeepers Quilt Related Tangent

I have 71 hexipuffs, I started knitting these in 2011. Trying to decide whether to start from scratch as lots of them are funny shapes!

Little-along

I have been so excited to see what you have been thinking you might knit for the little-along hosted by littleyellowuke and I. It starts on Sunday, yippie!

Cup Cosy Swap

I'm so pleased that lots of you want to join in with this! I am thinking about how to organise it, stay tuned :)
