So I haven't had much time to keep up with my blog or letters - the only bit of relief I have really is to pick up my needles and knit when they are in bed. I have found it a great comfort in helping me to unwind before going to bed myself. There's something about the needles moving back and forth and the fabric growing that I find really soothing.
So here are a few finished items from the last few months that you might like to take a look at.
Evie's Andalucia.....
... a little cropped cardigan for Leah....
... a wonderfully soft baby Kina for a friend's new daughter....
.... and a mini chic for Evie - although for the life of me I can't remember where I've put it!!!

I know I don't have children but I know a little how you feel as I've hardly written letters since September and even less since Easter... I'm just finding I'm slumped in front of the TV or reading a book... I just think its best to do what you feel comfortable with instead of forcing yourself to do something you don't want to as it feels like a chore.
I'm not even sure if you went back to work after Evie but if you did I can understand how much worse that is as it seems never ending with trying to keep on top of the house too.
I received your wonderful PC, thanks so much I did blog about it :). At least you now have Cornwall to look forward to and I hope you have wonderful weather.
I have always knitted a bit each day since I have had my children, otherwise I feel off balance somehow. I adore all those gorgeous knits you have been making, and your little girls are looking so cute in them too.
Knitting is a great antidote to a stressful life, my youngest of four is now 15 and I've always felt lost if I didn't have something on my needles all through their growing up..........I always made sure I had a little knitting time every day, so good for the soul.
Your little girls look so pretty in their mama's knits.
