Bailey the Bear

Align CenterBailey the bear

Meet Bailey the Bear I knitted him over these cold nights we have been having. Winter has come to S.A. with a vengeance.
The pattern is from the Women's Weekly and is by Debbie Bliss.

Honestly I don't feel 100

Well I have finally made it to 100 ...posts that is.

On the crafting front I have just finished a shawl the pattern came from Just another row who no longer has a blog.

Yesterday I asked Gemma could she model the shawl for me so I could take some photos.............. remember how helpful my boys were.

Here is the photo shoot firstly like all models she was hard to work with she insisted on being mysterious.

Then she wanted to go and get a prop she said anyone who has a shawl like this is a granny and as we didn't have a walking stick she got a broken umbrella out. This is her impersonation of a granny.

I know a shawl is a little granny like but I hate winter and spend a great deal of time feeling cold.

Today while Gemma was at work I had a far more co-operative model. Mmmm have you noticed green is my favourite colour.

Mel liked my shawl so much he thought he might keep it.
