Mummy & Pumpkin!

This is the mummy and pumpkin I knitted for Halloween. I got the pattern from Jean Greenhowe's 'Jiffy Knits' The hardest part was stuffing the mummy and sewing on his legs,very fiddly! The Pumpkin was much easier. The mummy took me about a week to do altogether and the pumpkin only took a day or so! They formed part of my Halloween display this year. I actually got them finished on the day itself. Hope you like them and they don't scare you too much!:)Also I have included a picture of my Halloween display so you can see how they fitted in with that. :)

My scarf!.

This is the first project I knitted. This was knitted with fancy yarn 'Circle' on 8mm needles. I soon started to regret using this type of wool as it is very hard to undo mistakes as it all knots together and hard to knit with for a beginner, it took a couple of attempts to get it right. It took about 3 balls of wool and weeks to do as I got a bit bored. LOL! Yes I do like purple and pink! I think the colors are really nice and will liven up my winter outfits and keep me warm!:) I decided to make myself a little logo today which you can see in the bottom of the picture.

My Knitted Piggy!

Here is the pig I knitted! It took me 4 days altogether which is good going for me! I used a nice chunky dusky pink wool and thick plastic needles. I got the pattern from a book I got from the library. I sewed his eyes on using embroidery thread. I hope you like him!
