WOYWW 503

Good morning to all my WOYWW blog friends and anyone else who calls by to see what I am up to.

As my desk hasn't seen much action over the last week, I thought I would post my latest little knitties…



My niece is helping to support the Haematology Cancer charity and asked me if I fancied knitting a few chicks to sell before Easter. Each one will have a Cadburys crème egg inside.

So, I knitted 6 little yellow ones and then decided funky random wool would be fun too.
I also had to name them so that's why each of the funky ones has a name tag.

There are advantages in having a never-ending supply of wool in my bag!

So that's my "show and tell" for this week.
Today, I will be having fun with Ben whilst Max catches up with some Tilly Tea Dance crafting in my sewing room. All good fun!

Have a great week.

xx Jo

That's a fun idea! Is the pattern available online anywhere as that might be a good thing to do for Easter for the charity our WI supports. I like the funky yarn ones too and naming them is genius - hope there's a Dora or Daffy somewhere!

Wee hours of Thursday. High winds awoke me. WOW hoping we keep electricity. WOW you got a lot of these done ! Always a great cause. I really love the pretty yarn in the funky ones. #13 and happy to be playing along. Enjoy Ben, I miss my far away grands. All have been out of school for 3/4 days due to weather. Enjoy a lovely week. Stay warm.
