Snow-friends

I made this

snowman as a

gift for a lovely

Facebook friend.

Although we’ve never met,

we’ve really bonded. I buy my

yarns and patterns from her.

For her snowman I used King

Cole Big Value in Petal and

White, and the pattern is an

internet download.

Lucy says What a lovely

gift to make, and how nice

to have made such a good

friend through the wonders

of social media.

Tea & cake elves

I’m a relatively new knitter and

I made a fun tea cosy to bring

festive sparkle to tea and cake

on Christmas Day. I mostly used

Stylecraft DK, plus a few bits from

my stash, and I combined two

separate patterns. I can’t wait for

the elves to pour my family tea!

Lucy says Welcome to the

wonderful world of knitting,

Nicky. Those are brave patterns

to tackle for a relative newbie!

Dear reindeer

      colour combination, Julie.
