👻 The fab prompt of #showmeyourknits this week is for spooky stitch projects, so rather think these little cuddly botanical boo crochet ghosties might just fit the bill!
🧶Finally, it is time to share the well guarded secret of the Stitch & Witch spooky season library fundraiser project - flower crown wearing cherry leaf dyed botanical boo crochet lavender filled ghosts & most simple knitted socks for to fill a drawer for them to snugly nap in...
The yarn is from hedgehog fibres, I'm afraid I don't know the colour as I lost the label and the pattern is just from my own head
I made another pumpkin, to tidy the bottom of it up a bit I put a little wooden button on it. My juvenile mind makes me feel like it's a little pumpkin bum and this brings me a ridiculous amount of joy - I do not apologise for this!

1. It is fucking alive
2. It hates the fact that I'm alive

Seriously with no mattress on it that thing has a hair trigger temper!

#OttomanBed #ItsAlive
I have a small bedroom, being a wheelchair user I find it quite hard using a "traditional" wardrobe so I bought a double ottoman bed with the gas pistol things to help you lift it up with a mattress on it - storage and space saving. I had to move it this evening and I have learned 2 things about it
Turns out really long doll needles are really long 🤣 they're also bloody sharp!

Still time to shape my pumpkin 🎃

Positive things a dog brings to knitting:
Doggie snores, extra fibre to knit into your pieces, the occasional snuggle

Negative things a dog brings to knitting: doggie fart that you are sure would melt your needles if they weren't metal!

Did I finally buy myself an electric tyre pump...yes
Did I also just push myself up and down the sitting room saying "weeee" like a 5 year old....yes also definitely yes!

The humans have been very busy in the house this morning meaning that I have been thoroughly ignored - this is simply not acceptable. The knitter has sat down to knit and I am taking full advantage to distract her!

Timeline cleanse - stop scrolling and adore a snoring puppy!

Yes he is almost 2 but that doesn't mean that he's not my baby and the problem is he knows it!

The hardest part of this was stitching the edges of it together, however it does mean that I have a new scrunchie/hair tie and its a nice quick make project...

More hospital appointments means more hospital knitting....
I am swatching for a hat - partly because that is what you are supposed to do, mostly because I have a fat head! Either way please clap 🤣

It's always about this time year that I start to wonder when it's will start and it looks like today 21st Sept is the day that the bangers have started 🙃

#Bangers #HalloweenIsComing
By no means perfect, there are many mistakes and I still need to make a little stem but I'm still ridiculously proud of my little pumpkin - it's almost cute enough to wear as a hat 🤣

Pattern: me messing
Yarn: Sock yarn by Hedgehog Fibres colour anemone

Very slowly coming to life just knitting a tube and going to stitch each end tight - it has no real use other than to make me happy but that's use enough!

Feeling a little lost this evening I know I want to try to be creative so I'm going to try to make a mini pumpkin - I've got the page out and written down what I think will work - wish me luck!
