Knitting in progress

My knitting orders have suddenly taken off, must be the cold weather.  I have nearly finished the pink jacket, just have the rest of the right front to finish so should have that done this week.

Also a small dog coat, just finished.  Now I have orders for five more, but large ones!
I still have orders for my poncho jumper, scarf, bootees, slippers and a stitched purse and bag!
Busy busy busy, so nice and I am so grateful.

While sorting my workroom/studio out I came across a nearly finished jumper.  I thought only cats destroyed knitting, but Dolly has been having some fun.  Luckily its only the ball of wool and not the jumper!
 As my dog patterns haven't arrived yet I have started on my next knitting order, my daughter wants a pink jacket for Christmas, is this pink enough lol.
I have also had an order for another knitted poncho style jumper, this one will also be in pink.  What is it with pink lately, everything seems to be wanted in pink!

Finished Jumper

I have finished Fem's Jumper.  I thought I should get cracking now the colder weather is approaching.  Photo does not do it justice really, its a poncho style jumper. I just hope she likes it or I will be selling it and making something else lol.
I have some orders for dog coats, so I will start on those and leave Christmas present knitting for now.

Depression

After a long period of depression, I am hopefully getting back to normal.  I am currently knitting a poncho style jumper for my sister in law, the lovely Femmie.  My daughter has just had a baby and I have some crocodile bootees to make for him.  I want to start making my Christmas presents as its getting close and I still have lots of bags to make.  I have so many ideas and things I want to do now at last I feel motivated.  A big thank you to all of you who have sites I have visited, all your wonderful work has kept my sane, just lol.  Thank you all.

A Surprise

I have been crippled with my back since Friday and haven't been in my workroom.  I went in this morning to put some post in there and my plant is in flower. What a lovely surprise to cheer me up.
 Took a close up of the flower itself, so beautiful.
And yet another surprise, I have a visitor looking in the window!  I have a small balcony and Hunny's hutch backs onto the flat, just as well if she can get up on it.  You can see my lovely Perris in bloom and my pansies in milk bottle bottoms for pots.

More Embellished Hangings

For some reason I cannot rotate my pictures.  I should have done this before I added my name in the middle lol.

This first one simply Love.

 And this one is Under the Sea.

Four Seasons

I completed these earlier this year. It's a set of four small hangings entitled The Four Seasons.  I have used my embellisher to make the background using paper and fabric.  I have then added ribbons and embroidered over the top to finish.

The first one is Autumn or Fall.


The second is Spring.

The third is Summer.

And finally Winter.
