This is a short and sweet post this week as lots of the things i’ve been up to this week i can’t post pictures of just yet, i’ve been super busy with not so much time for my personal projects. I’ve also been working on a Christmas instructable for Monday that i’m *really* excited about sharing!! :) Also my camera memory card died so i didn’t take any pictures last weekend apart from the ones at Eddie Izzard, woopsie!

It’s been so busy round here so it’s been a while since i’ve done an update on where project blankie’s got to. For those new to the blog (hi!) project blankie is a massive sofa throw i’m making out of individual knitted and crochet’d squares. If you’ve got craft skills, i’d love for you to send me one and i’ll feature it on the blog :)
