Long time, no blog!

Okay, if people actually read this, they'd be bored of how every blog says "sorry it's been so long since I've blogged".

So here is what I've been doing in 2013!

I am learning to knit, here is a scarf which has taken forever and a teeny red and white ball which took a couple of hours:

  

I want to make some more similar (but neater) balls and thread them with ribbon to make christmas baulbauls!

The ball is knit out of cotton and the scarf is 80% cotton 20% acrylic. I am now moving onto a cotton patchwork blanket, because I love blankets. :)



FUDGE! Chocolate vegan fudge, it's delicious and I used this recipe: http://glutenfreeonashoestring.com/really-nice-dairy-free-fudge/ This one had peanut butter, but I made another batch for mothers day without peanut butter. Without the PB you can really taste the coconut... yum!



Tiramisu birthday cupcakes! Okay my birthday was ages ago, and I had an exam in the morning and the prospect of 4 more exams in the next 10 days so it would have taken something remarkable to cheer me up... something like THESE. They were delicious and baked by my wonderful Fiance :) The recipe is from VCTOTW, if you haven't bought it, you must!


 Sewing: I have made a couple of skirts from jersey fabric. The skirts cost less than £5 each to make and took just a couple of hours each :) I used this tutorial: http://www.makeit-loveit.com/2011/03/womens-skirt-with-yoga-style-waist-band.html


Okay, there's been loads more but I can't find the photos.

So that's your lot.
