feeling neighbourly

well the snow came & went, then came back again for a little & we kept snug in front of the wood burner {whilst i knitted} the sublime chunky merino tweed became a 'neighborly' for little O, i loved knitting with this wool, it was so warm & soft, the colours are lovely too, 
i've been a little quiet on the blogging front, mostly because i've just been enjoying & making the most of half term, their holiday is my holiday too & love it! we've been kept busy this week & when i have found five minutes to sit at the sewing machine i've been making mattresses & pillows for the little sylvanian folks that little O {& i} have become rather fond of

  1. I know exactly what I plan to do this afternoon, have some spare (way too much to be called spare!) wool and this vest style jumper would be perfect. Thank you for inspiring me - here's to no interruptions!

  3. How lucky you are to get some quality knitting time in over the half term holidays - I always struggle to get any daytime knitting in once the children are home from school. The merino tweed tunic looks so cosy, absolutely love the button detail on the shoulder.

    Happy Knitting
