Happy Halloween!

So I’m not normally a big Halloween person but fancied carving a pumpkin this year! It was actually really rather fun!
Here are the results….

And my gorgeous dog sitting with the pumpkin!
It took ages to get her to sit next to the pumpkin because she was scared of it!
Happy Halloween! xxx

Yummy Cake!

So I spent a lovely morning baking this morning. I do love baking. And eating the result, obviously. Today’s creation… a lovely light sponge with a chocolate buttercream filling covered in milk chocolate, maltesers, white maltesers and smarties! Yum!

Andy the Alien

So I have this gorgeous book called Super-cute crochet. My mum bought it for me and I wasn’t all that excited about the front cover, a little to cutesy for me but inside there are some absolutely gorgeous animals.
You may remember my post about Ollie the Octopus a while back. He is also from this book. I’d definitely recommend it!
Anyway, here he is…

The colours haven’t reproduced all that well, the green is actually really bright, almost fluorescent! Hope you like him :)

Happy days

Its been gloriously sunny for this time of year which has meant a few unexpected trips to the ice-cream van in October!

I also have various crochet projects on the go at the moment.  Will be posting photos when complete! I can’t wait to see the gorgeous alien finished! He just needs 3 eyes and 6 legs!

And as usual I’m getting in to the christmas spirit too early for my family’s liking! But christmas crochet makes me all excited!!

Much love xxxxxxxxx
