Jet Gloves


Wow - time has flown between posts. I've been away from the computer for a while trying to finish some UFO's.



Katie is modeling these fingerless gloves that I've knitted up. She is holding these beautiful Japanese wind flowers from my garden that flower in Autumn.


The gloves are knitted with Jet wool that I got on sale for about $3.50 last year at a clearance sale. I cast on 34 stitches, knitted rib, 2 knit, purl 2 to the end. I knitted to about 7 inches then cast off. Sew up the sides - easy peasy. Quick, cheap, warm gloves.

Sock Wool



I picked up this sock wool on the weekend from Spotlight on sale for $2.50 a ball......!

Now, I need to finish my first sock that I started nearly 3 years ago....:)

Cicada Shell Craft


These pictures where taken before Christmas, but I thought I'd post them anyway...:)
They look very sweet sitting there crafting away.


About 2 months ago there was an abundance of cicada shells on the trees around our neighbourhood. My boys have gotten a nice collection of them to decorate.

They were painting them and decorating them for the Christmas tree and the nature table.

I love the sparkly ones with the glitter on them.......:)

Afternoon at the Park



It's been such a wet, misty, cold Summer here in the upper Blue Mountains, it was nice to get out of the house and enjoy Summer before it skips past us. We went to the local park to have a run around and get some fresh air.



Katie built another one of her faerie houses for the park faeries.



The maple leaves are just staring to change colour to remind us that Autumn is just around the corner.


Oops... Sunny Boy's faerie house just got stuck by hurricane Lou.


There goes hurricane Lou.

It was nice to meet another mum with her little one at the park.
