Little B sleeps and I sit at the table making a mess.
This is mess of the very Bestest Kind.
Creative Mess.
Yarn. Thread. Beads. Buttons.
Colour. Creativity. Activity. Happiness.
I am hugely happy.
Big swell of my heart and big smile on my face.
I am working through an idea that flew into my head on Monday and refused to budge.
And it's all come together and has worked out and I am so so so SO excited.
I love it when an idea is successfully moved from my Creative Mind, through my hands and into Reality.
I am inCREDibly excited to show you what I've been up to, but I've not quite finished yet.
I can tell you that it's a little hooky something (of course), combined with buttons and beads.
And tuna.
Yes, that's right.
Tuna.
As in the can of fish.
Oh, and flowers too.
Watch this space............

Edit to add :: the yarn is Rowan Handknit Cotton DK xx
Blimey, I'm on the internet too much. This has happened twice now.
I can't wait to see the finished results. Happy Thursday to you Lucy. Your blog has cheered me up no end lately when I've been stressing about my children's health and feeling sleep deprived. Hope it's as sunny with you as it is here in Teesside.

I wish I could just be a fly on the wall and not have to WAIT!!! I think you just need to live-blog every project so we don't ever miss anything :) When that flower wall hanging pattern comes out I'm dropping everything and will make a million!!

Wowzers how utterly intriguing, I have all of those component parts in the house but I bet if I put them all together it wouldn't even come within light years of how good yours will be :-)

Ooooh...that really is the best kind of mess!! ::I just want to stick my nose in those balls of wool and take a big sniff....*ahem*..!
Can't wait to see what you're getting up to!
Posted by: Rubyted | January 19, 2012 at 03:08 PM
I was really feeling this surprise, until you mentioned tuna. Now I'm not so sure! I guess I'll have to come back and see what comes of your mess!

The mind boggles! But tuna is almost always good (or so my cats would have you believe anyway).
Posted by: Ali | January 19, 2012 at 03:16 PM
Mais mais où est la tasse de chocolat ?
Posted by: sylviedu13 | January 19, 2012 at 03:18 PM
Lol! I am incredibly intrigued! Tuna - as in the fish?? Or is my English level letting me down and is there another meaning? Because buttons, beads, flowers and fish?... Do take away my confusion soon! :D xxxx
Posted by: Nanita | January 19, 2012 at 03:23 PM
Flowers? Tuna? We're all waiting with baited breath! I can't wait to see the results. I've been telling everyone about the wonderful HFW cake recipe, thank you so much for sharing that with us. Mine was delicious, I want to make another one very soon.
