Welcoming a new O'Sullivan

I have a new great neice/nephew due on the 3rd January. My Mum would be thrilled at the idea of another great grandchild due on her birthday. I don't know if it will be a boy or a girl so I have hedged my bets and made garments in pink and blue. These socks are made from tiny balls of Regia yarn. The colours are very short repeats so perfect for baby socks.

 

 

WAW memories

We have spent the last four years following the Wild Atlantic Way route around the west coast of Ireland. We have been to every beach on the mainland and photographed most of the rusty signposts. These are not popular with lots of people but I love them.  The best bit has been sharing it with my man and spending time on such glorious beaches.

 

I have produced a photo book of our travels and my next task is to make a granny square blanket to keep me warm in winter as I dream of returning to some of those beaches. Each granny square will have four colours and each square will be connected with the dark blue. I have eighty squares to do so I had better get started.

 

Here are the colours I have chosen and a few photos from our travels.
