The year is whizzing by.....



Hi, do you feel that time slipping away at a rate of knots!  I do, September is nearly gone.

With that in mind I have made a start on my Christmas gift list, I am determined not to have a rush this year at the last moment.  So I made lists and I have worked a list that if I start now I can make handmade gifts for my family and friends.

This week, I have been working on sets of coasters or as I like to call them mug rugs.  



These are super easy to do and the link to the pattern is here.

Also, I have made some washcloths, which are becoming very popular here. 



This is quite a chunky cloth, ideal for a dishcloth, the cables are good for scrubbing.  The pattern is here, it is a Ravelry download but membership is free.



I love the fan shape but there were a lot of ends!  Pattern is here .
Ii have also finished a toy dog from the July issue of Simply crochet for my grand nephew.

 I have started on the donkey from the August copy for his brother.


While I am pleased that I have started on my Christmas list, I do wish the rain would stop, I so need to get into the garden!  So, hoping the next week will bring some sunny skies.

Thanks for visiting and will see you soon.
