My First video!!!!!!!





Hi!!!!
This is my first video on how to cast on using the thumb method. I was really nervous making it and that's the reason I couldn't do a basic knot at the start of the video but it got easier as I went along. I hope you like it!!!!!!!

Another present!

Hi Olivia again!!!
Had a whole day knitting yesterday with a friend and did tons!!! She was making a lovely scarf with cream softie wool and I was knitting my grandma a present. They both look beautiful and am almost finished myn. I have been knitting like crazy but now the weekends over I won't get so much done. I am possitive I will finish before the end of the week though! It will such a lovely present but I am afraid I can't put it on until after her birthday but it will be worth the wait I promise!!!!!!!!!!!

Perfect purchases!!

Hi Olivia here!!!
I have just been to my local sewing and bought a lovely pattern as well as an amazing travel sewing kit. First the travel sewing kit. It is so cute!!! I love the tin it comes in but the stuff inside is so nice!!! In it you get these really cool scissors which fold up, a thimble, some white, blue, red and pink thread, six safety pins, a tape measure, some buttons and poppers, an unpicker and some needles!!!!!
The knitting pattern I got was also really nice. I have had some lovely softie wool for ages ( almost a year!!!) and needed to use it up. I set out to try and find a pattern to use it in. I found a really nice pattern for some slouchy slipper socks which are really nice and comes with three other patterens and was only £2.99!!!! Although I will have to buy two more balls of wool they look so nice it is worth it and just wanted to get rid of that wool!!!!!
