Busy Times

Well I havent blogged for a while, but have been very busy too! I have been writing alot of articles for the creative crafting magazine that can be found here http://www.creative-crafting.com/ please take a look it is a great magazine and the next issue will be the anniversary halloween one so will be great fun!!

Another bit of news is that I now have a pattern up on ravelry called peggys knits beach bag and it is a bag that I designed and I have had some great reviews from it so I am over the moon!

Also a new range is coming soon to Peggys Knits and my gorgeous niece Heidi has volunteered to model for me and I am getting a professional photographer to take some great shots of her wearing my new range.

My friend Madam Salami is getting married soon and I have recentely made her Damson by Ysolda Teague I loved making this and I am making another for a charity auction to raise money for mencap.

Happy Birthday To Me

Well I have had another birthday, had a great time!! Had lots of goodies, my niece Abigail got me a balloon which was great fun, my other niece Heidi got me a sparkly necklace. Anna (the crystal lady) made me a beautiful bracelet and Avril (Sprinkles Sparkles) made me a lovely little pin cushion which she cross stitched. Sprinkles Sparkles also made me a lovely knitting phone charm for me to give to someone in a swap I am on the UKRAK forum on Ravelry, I love it loads so hope I can bear to give it away when the time comes!!

On a bad note, we have all been ill with a stomach bug :( so hope we dont catch anything else soon. On the road to recovery now and getting busy with the creative crafting magazine and orders for Peggy's Knits shops on folksy and misi.

|I have also been twittering alot recentely its a great way to keep in contact with everyone and it is so handy on my blackberry phone ! my name on there is peggysknits too if anyone wants to add me.

Been some time !!

Well its been some time since I blogged last !!! so I must be doing this on a regular basis. Well first of all we have had the creation of Peggys Knitting Kits, I have done a facecloth/dishcloth cotton one and also a sock knitting one. Each of them come with everything you need, including a bag to put all your bits and pieces into!!






Also it was sprinks birthday!!! so I knitted her a little bunny with a cute little pink dress on, I am so glad she liked it! here is her blog http://sprinklessparkles.blogspot.com/













I then decided that a goth inspired bunny was next and got very creative with my next bunny! I am sure you will all love her, chains and crosses and red netting underneath her skirt too!

I am also working hard on the creative connections website http://creative-connections.ning.com/ and having knitting chats on there, as well as helping with the magazine that is due out on the 1st April so keep a look out it is a great issue !! Anna and Sprinks are hard at work as we speak and they do a fab job !! Anna is the crystal lady and her blog is here http://crystalladyblogs.blogspot.com/

New Year

Well I havent been blogging as much as I should be. So here goes, christmas is over had a lovely time and have been very busy with my knitting and developing new ideas for peggys knits. Had a few problems and health issues but trying to be positive now!

We had loads of snow about a month ago and the kids loved it, especially being off school ! lol

I have also been busy making socks, here a couple of them, on this page they were both for very good friends of mine. Now making my daughter Rebecca a pair and a couple of secret ones are in the pipeline ;)

I am also making another pair of not socks by Chopped Tomatoes, Machelle is a great designer and I love knitting her patterns.
