Something New - Monthly Make for March

My Mum came down for a visit yesterday. It was a lovely day. We went out for lunch, stopped for coffee and of course we did some shopping.  It was nice to have her come down mid week as I (almost) got her all to myself. Hope that does not sound to harsh but normally she would be here on a weekend and with my 4 kids bidding for her attention I don't get a lot of time with her as mother and daughter.  So yesterday it was just Mum, Lily and me :o)

Anyway, back on track, in one shop I was in one Isle looking at something but wanted a different color then I went around to mum and what did she have in her basket?  Exactly what I was looking for!  A quick chat and she was going to make one for me .... yay

But, when we got home I decided to give it a go myself.  So a quick lesson from Mum (with crochet hooks!!) before she left and then a quick drive again for me to get what else I needed .... proper needles.

Any idea what I'm on about?

Knitting!

I don't knit,

I have never knitted

but I also had a "get out of jail free" card with mum. 

I could mail it to her to do for me  :o) 

Nothing like a fail proof back up plan, thanks Mum.

I started with this

Have you seen this yarn. It is like a lace

and it knits up like this

Now I have this Scarf and you only need one ball of yarn.



Thank you to my model xx

Now I have the needles I might think about making another.

I am also going to link this one up as my

Monthly Make for March

Enjoy your day,

hugs, Sharon
