well such a lovley day today I decided to give my fingers a rest from Knitting I can catch up this evening and have spent some time in garden which makes a change from the weather we have had this summer and then made a large plum crumble with some of the plumbs picked
Now there is just the 2 of us to cook for when I do baking I do large size of 10 portions and then freeze in portions which saves on oven use and my time so there is always a meal for days when I am busy or just dont feel like cooking
I cook most food from scratch as my husband is not only diabetic but his Kidneys are also failing so things like salt protein carbohydrates sugar & calories all have to be taken in to account
the picture was taken a few years ago

just some bonnets boties & mittens made in DK, the first is in toquise the second in cream so i am not sure why they show more blue in the picture, the bonnet i made so it could be tightend around face but i have also made same patten with just bows & ties at bottom so it looks diffrent, i have also tried it with diffrent coloured ribions threaded through which also looks good so quite an adaptable patten that would suit from birth to 6 months ( 28 to 30 around face)

Introduction
Hi, my name is Jean, and I make hand knitted clothing for babies, chlidren and adults.
I've been working as a seamstress and tailor since the 1970's and have settled down in my golden years with knitting to keep myself busy.
I can make nearly anything to custom for most sizes, patterns and designs, I can also make stuffed knitted plush toys.
Here are a few pictures of my recent pieces:
If you're interested in ordering anything feel free to leave a comment with contact information (preferrably email).
I have plenty of free time so I'm sure I'll be able to make most things (within reason) although I prefer making baby and toddler clothing.
More pictures coming soon.
