Much to-do about nothing......

 Boring January;-(

 Collars, collars, Collars no sales and I think I had better cap the production line as I have basically filled my Etsy shop.  

There mindless crochet 
(I don't mean, I don't care, opposite love my idea) 

But that I can make whist my heads full of life's commitments, I don't have to stress, pattern or colour, and thanks to the Jelly OutCasts yarn sales and my Sirdar connection (Angel Hatton) I'm well stocked.

This was a gift, for Kerry I figured it's good to promote your wears!  

Wearing it your self,(or friend in public) is the best way to noticed.




Victorian in StyleI still feel that I love photographing the knit as much as making it.

A Dolly from across the pond..........she arrived!
Jun Planning Pullip Slica



Above is how she should look but she's a little bit vintage 2007 boxed and as yet I haven't managed to find her outfit.



I discovered my dream, Doll shop.From the blog below, when researching one of my latest editions to my ever extending doll family;-).

A Lovely vintage feel



I made this last year and had completely forgotten to pop it in a post properly. until I found it in my ever expanding wardrobe. (and not for clothes)

It seems to have become a family storage space!.   My daughters 't' shirt went very well,  I thought it had given the photo a little bit of a vintage feel, setting off the mixed media extra large scarf.




Secret market coming soon, watch ths space

Sheep - They are just all to cute, I really must commit to a pattern one of these days.  I guess good start here....which one would you choose?

Below collars ,collars every where.  No sales yet but fingers crossed, January a tight month but my Etsy shop is filling up fast!.

PRODUCTIVE
 Bargain Yarn from Bracknell and a huge cheap shop that stock mostly acrylics.   But this Pricewise King cole (new packaging) Yarn band pastels and I really like the colours.




Derelict Victorian Warehouse
 Power source below

Old of what? not Victorian obviously, but I just thought it may give a hint of the last time power was in use. 

777 part post code/number for East London ware house and all pretty cool.  


 And would you believe it what did I discover but old knitted graffiti.
 In unbelievably hypothermic conditions.  Me as an extra......Looking like something out of a zombie movie.



Dolls
I must admit that even I think that I have gone a little doll crazy.  I have since Lyla Bowie (Lie -La) ordered and received Tangkou number two. (no photos yet) Iris Beau (Italy) 

And I have a Pullip on the way........from across the pond.  I actually budgeted so well for Christmas and decided to get my gifts after;-)  hence dolls, dolls,dolls.

I googled pullip and these are the images I got, mine has a similar face to the steam punk pic, second one from the Left.

 Steam Punk
From dolls to steam punk-(steam punk and dolls) also a random google hit.......by accident.
Steam punk, Never ever heard of this either?

Random search on Etsy looking for pullip clothes.
 
Slica?(dolls shop name) something similar to here name, I got it wrong and then up came the hit "did you mean Steam punk?"
I clicked then promptly spent £20 on my 1st steampunk assoccorie!

Steam punk, clock work a cross between Edward Scissor and mad max!
so I googled its reference Steam and post Apocalypse future?
