Sewing or knitting?

Sewing or knitting? What do you prefer? I like to do both but it all depends on what type of mood I am in and the time of day. I can knit whenever but I find that if I am cutting out and making clothes, I prefer to do that during the day time as my mind struggles more when I am tired. I have been knitting lots of the little hats that Sainsbury's sell on their innocent smoothies to help raise money for Age Uk in October. I can do them with my eyes shut. Sometimes literally! And this is a great de-stress. It also helps a good cause as too many elderly people need support, especially in the cold of winter. We all need a bit of support at different times in our lives.

New Year. New beginnings

So .......... We are nearly 2 weeks into the New Year and a New Year tends to get us thinking about changes and resolutions of what we want to change and achieve over the next 12 months. One of the things I have decided I want to have a go at is to publish a blog. Now anyone that knows me will know how rubbish I am with new technology, Give me a pen and paper or a needle and thread any day! I am going to have a go though and post pics (if I can work out how to do it) and just chat about what I am currently making, what I want to make and any other craft related stuff. So. Here goes.......
The very first post.
