Toddlers Set.

I have just finished these and my granddaughter could not wait to take a photo of them. :-)

Its not a pattern that I have bought its one made up of various bits and bobs.

Its not turned out too bad though. It was some lemon and brown yarn that I had left over and although it does not show up in the photo very well it does look quite striking. Granddaughter has asked me to keep it for her in case she ever has any children. :lol:
She is at University at the moment studying photography and journalism.
She has a part time job while off for the summer break with this photographer in Nottingham.

That's lovely Maisie

I'm like you - really enjoy knitting , but hate sewing up.
I've been making baby blankets. Our knitting club are supporting two women's refuges and they always want little blankets.

I wish I could help Mazzy but I am limited now to what I can hold.
Small items are ok but I would not be able to hold needles with too many stitches on because my fngers get the cramp and I have to drop the darn knitting. :sad:

If doing intricate patterns it can be extremely awkward trying to pick the stitches up that have dropped off the flipping needles with dropping the item I am making. :evil:
Small hats and cardigans are ok and so were the dungarees that you can see in the photo, this was mainly because the dungarees are in garter stitch.
