all about maui

I know, I know, this is supposed to be about crafts...but for anyone who hasn't seen this girlie in a while, here's a big dose of Maui!

a new necker!

Well, I've been pretty tied up since Christmas with the bridesmaid's dresses for Gill's wedding, but I've found a little time for some knitting!
This is a new necker I made with the yarn Gill gave me for Christmas (Crystal Palace Musique - colour Heath) (pardon the redeye and the bamboo growing out of my head!):

I made these wristwarmers over Christmas, my first try at cabling!:


That's all for now, back to the dresses for me!

what did you get?

Finally, I can post everyone's gifts!

Bonnie and Maureen got embroidered pillow cases:




My cousin Audrey got a super-soft scarf:



Mom got a jewellery hanger:



Christine got the necker from a few pages back, as well as a stecilled modest mouse tee:



Grant got a tiled tray:



And finally, Gill got a biz-start-kit with stencilled tee and stencil to make more, stamp, stationary, and tags:





This was the most fun I've had making presents by far!
