More day light please...

January is one of those months you either love it or hate it (it's such a long month),

The 1st of 12, I've grown to love it, it's a new beginning, the start of new things, and most importantly, the days start to get a little longer, take today, it's now 4.15pm, in London, and we still have daylight, this time last week, it would have been dark. Spring is almost in our grasp, and I for one can't wait.

So each new day of January brings with it a few additional precious minutes of daylight.

The only bad thing is, this week, we've had dark dark clouds, so trying to get images of my knits has been impossible, I've practically given up, But I'm living in hope for a brighter day tomorrow, and those few additional minutes.

all the best to ya in 2011

I hope you all enjoyed a safe and happy welcome into 2011.

Personally I sat at home in my PJs watching the Blind side on DVD, knitting, and chatting with Mr iLE AiYE. it was a nice peaceful evening.

Wishing you all a peaceful, fulfilling, flawless, healthy and happy 2011

It's not a game controller

When my son isn't around to help me capture images of my knits, Mr iLE AiYE steps in, whilst he's really good at this job, I'm forever telling him, the camera button is not a game controller, ie you're not playing a shoot um up game, cause he just clicks on that poor button a thousand times a second. hence we end up with images like these. whilst all arty and that, it's not really focusing on the garment. So for today, these are the images available of my new wool sweater... Just think Abstract :)

The Grunge on a slant

Here's a modified version of the grunge sweater with an asymmetrical slant.

I'm really really liking this, I think a cream version is gonna be a must for the spring.

New Suite sir

Mr iLE AiYE doesn't shop much for clothes, but we've been on the look out for a nice new suit for some time now. Yesterday, we decided to chance our luck at the Harrods sale, the store was open until 9pm, so after a lazy afternoon at home, we headed out around 6pm and had a stroll around the famous store. As luck would have it, we found this smart 2 piece. Umm suites you sir. PS, this isn't Mr iLE AiYE modelling. :)

Ok, this is the easier stuff done

Yes I've joined the reported thousands, shopping on-line for some post christmas bargins, I've decided upon these two garments. although I fear I'm not finished as I'll be needing some black boots to go with them.
