Pheeeeeeew!!

Yes, pheeeeeew!  I can't think of anything better to say - my laptop is back safe and sound, hurray!  I'm so happy to have it back on one piece - we put it into our local computer dealer and they returned it all shiny and working better than ever :)  Lesson learned though, and I think some serious backing up of files is required over the next week or so LOL :)

Anyway, back to tweedie/crafty business - I have been soooooooo busy this last week - a request for some tweedie keyrings for a wholsale order seems to have sparked off a whole new range of designs which I'm dying to show you but I'd better not bombard you with them in one post, so  hopefully over the next while I will reveal all :)   The shop is once again open - I've a few items for sale on there before I add my new stock, quite exciting!

Looks like commercial tweedie-work is back on the agenda - whoooop!

Sock-knitting progress is ongoing, halfway through the second 'Egyptian' sock - it's such a great pattern.  I was worried about any shaping/decreasing in colour-work knitting but it's all very simple with this sock . . .

I have, ahem, some errors in both socks - but I'm embracing them as part of their complete uniqueness and individuality, hehe!  Quite easy to miss a row of the pattern  or add an extra row but I don't think my mistakes are too obvious :)  I will have a 'grand' sock opening/launch, when they are finally complete - hope I don't run out of yarn, eeeks!

I'll be eating some of this lovely produce this weekend . . .

Yum!  Haggis and neeps, to celebrate Robbie Burns birthday - what better?  I'm looking forward to it - I will probably eat most of the haggis myself,  hehe :)  Shame no one else in the family really likes it :) :)

For a' that and 'a that, etc, etc!  Happy Robbie Burns night if you're celebrating D

'Speak' soon, hope to catch up on some bloggie-reading when I catch my breath!
