Knitting and other creations.

I started my blog in 2011, which was to be my year of knitting. I sucessfully knitted all of the gifts that I gave.
I learnt to knit at my Godmother's knee and have always taken it for granted.

2011 has drawn to a close but my blogging will continue, not just knitting but other creations too.

Reflecting

There is a challenge on Facebook at the moment to say three positive things a day for five days. It should be an easy challenge and in many ways it is, yet each evening for the last four days before I have made my party I have had to stop and pause and think.

I have so many things to be grateful for but most of all each evening I have been most thankful for my friends with whom I can everything and for my family who accept as I am.

This year my house group have been studying a year of Biblical womanhood by Rachel Held Evans. We have each engaged with book in own ways taken different bits from the book. I am eternally grateful the wonderful women from my house group who are so wise and full of faith. The depth and breadth of experience that they represent is inspiring and reassuring. If I am struggling with something they will help me tease the issue apart, when I am weak they make me strong, when I am sad they share my pain and when I am happy they share in my joy.

Fleecy jumper

This evening I have been for lovely cuddles with baby Austen. He was georgous and it gave me the opportunity to deliver the little fleecy jumper that I knitted for him.
