Little baby pants. :: Knitting Adventures.

My cousin is having a baby! As soon as I heard, I got excited about knitting baby things. After searching all my books, I realised that I don't have that many baby patterns. So- to Ravelry I went. There are a lot of fun projects in my queue now, hehe. Here's the first project I completed. It's called: The Frantic Mama Knitted Soaker.
I chose yarns from my stash, little bits of this and that. Did a little swatch and then started. We didn't know if it was going to be a little lady or a little man, so I thought reds and oranges were pretty neutral and kick ass! Made the little gradient stripes from scraps of sock weight yarn I had. The great thing about this pattern is you can knit it plain or spice it up as much as you want. And each one will look totally different!Plus the little leg ribs are so cute! And look... surprise!Little secret heart included. :]It's just so tiny and adorable. I can't get over it! Kimxo

Well Said- all weekend! :: Market & London & BA Illustration

Hello! Sorry it's been so quiet, but I'm sure you can understand why! Had a brilliant show at Camberwell and now our year group (That's all my fellow BA Illustration students from Camberwell) have put on a show on Brick Lane!

We are going to be at THE RAG FACTORY (favourite place!) from tomorrow night 6pm for the private view and then everyday until Sunday 10-7pm. It would mean the world to me if you came and checked it out.

We've all worked super super hard to bring you the best show we can, in a fun and exciting part of London (Brick Lane is crazy cool on the weekends with Vintage clothes markets, Vinyl shops, tasty food and the best curries in London. Oh and don't forget Spitalfields and Box Park just a few streets away).

Along with a few of the WS team, I'll be tweeting live with pictures and updates. @wellsaid2013 #wellsaid2013 Don't forget to check out the WS blog for interviews with the artists.
Hope to see you there!!!
