Little Christmas Pud!




This is an unashamedly promotional plug for my mum!


She is a knitter extraordinaire and has kept all three of my children in hats, cardis and blankets for the last 13 years. In fact some well loved items have been saved and passed from baby to baby, like my fave lime green cardi that little Rose now wears- it was knitted for her older sister Kia 13 years ago, how green is that ?!


Mum has finally bitten the bullet, overcome her technophobia and created a folksy shop to sell her Beanie Baby Hats. She uses beautifully soft cotton yarn- just right for little noggins.

I wanted to share with you her latest creation, a fab Christmas Pud- the perfect gift for a little one!



Hee Hee, there it is, family promotion finished,

It is December already! Unlike the highstreet, we don't allow ourselves to get in the festive spirit until this month begins, however now that it is here we won't hold back, woohoo..



To prove it we are pleased to announce the opening of our Christmas Boutique, our first venture into selling directly online, eek!

This year our Holiday cards have been inspired by everything from hand knitted jumpers to Nordic folk art.
Take a look at our store and let us know what you think of this year's designs:
