Here's the emerald green bamboo.

I'm really loving this shade of green at the moment, it's so strong, and rich, and just adds a pop of colour to your outfit.

I was missing in action for a while there

Wow the past two weeks have been manic, to point of over whelming really, but I'm now on the other side and can see some spare minutes in my day. :)

so this morning I quickly knitted up this Bamboo shrug, just a pretty little shoulder cover up to accessorize your outfit, the yarn is flat, like tape, and has a really decent weight to it. This will be a limited edition as I have a small stock of this discontinued yarn, it's also available in a pale pink, emerald green, and a slate greyish/blue.

Tis finished

So at 1am this morning I started this sweater, with a small 2 hour nap between 6 - 8am, a quick sandwich at 1pm, finally it's complete. The yarn I've used is a beautiful bamboo tape yarn, it's a totally discontinued yarn, I was lucky to retrieve a small stock, so whilst I was at it, I got myself a black shade, and a beautiful emerald green, I also have a steel blue which has been in my stash since last summer. I have other plans for these yarns, but the cream/ivory has worked a treat on this fringe sweater.

Hope you like it. :)

Work in progress

So this one is a custom order, the idea is to have a fringe Big UP sweater,

I tell you it's no mean feat securing all these tassels, I've got MR iLE AiYE on the job helping cut the tassels out whilst I secure them, it's taken me 2 hours thus far to secure this lot, I've still got two arms to finish and a bit of the back section,

I'm looking forward to trying on the finished version, here's hoping it will be today or perhaps tomorrow.

Some new images for the click it collars

for ages I've been meaning to take some better images of these click it collars, Today I managed to do 3 shades, better than nothing I guess. and as you can see they're not just useful to layer up a winter outfit, they also work perfectly with a spring one too.

An Emerald green summer poncho

Last night I just had to knit up this emerald green yarn, it was calling me, and wouldn't stop until I put on my needles :)

these images really don't show how wonderful this shade is, it's perfect for a woman with green or blue eyes, as well as being a perfect light cover up in the spring summer

For dry eyes

I thought I'd just share this with any readers who suffer with dry or sore eyes.

Last year I suffered really badly with a left dry eye, to the extent that eventually my eye lid dropped. I hated it so much. but thought it might just be down to age.

Anyway during recent attempts to correct the problem, I found this product, and I swear it's correcting my dropped eyelid, basically with the eye having more moisture the eye lid can sit correctly, it's still not back to how it used to be, but after one week of treating the eye with a drop in the morning and again in the evening, there is a huge improvement.

the drops only cost £5.00 and in my opinion it's well worth the money.

I bought mine from Amazon, http://www.amazon.co.uk/BLINK-INTENSIVE-TEARS-EYE-DROPS/dp/B0046U812Y/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1306341015&sr=8-4
