Finished Article

Well the weekend brought many surprises good and bad!

I took my rabbits to the show in Chester and won best of breed with my Coloured Satin and the Sable buck went Best Fur under 5 months. I was just beaten for Best Fur by a Havana rabbit, but was very pleased with my result.

I took the opportunity to call at my daughter's on the way home as she is a fabulous critic and I can always depend on her for some honest feedback. Primrose was very well received, she thought it was very good and eve asked me to knit her one.

So it looks like I will be keeping it and entering it into the show in September.

What to do next??

On Friday I found a bargain in a local charity shop, 8 balls of Tartan knitting wool, all I need to do now is find something to knit, which I can enter into a different category, this time it has to be a garment of some sorts.

I went down with the dreaded flu on Saturday night so that was the bad!! but hopefully I can do some research and find a god pattern whilst I am laid up.

My other rabbits

What a day! For the second week running I have been laid off on friday from work. Not feeling 100% think I am going down with Mel's cold(man flu), but after dosing my self up felt well enough to tackle my rabbits. I have entered six of them into a show in Chester tomorrow and need to groom them. I am very pleased with the way they are looking and have to hope the judge thinks so too. It was the turn of primrose next I had a jumper to finish two flowers to knit and a pompon to make and yes I have done it at last. The first person to see it completed was hubby who did nothing but criticise and find it's faults. So now I am a little worried that it is not good enough. I think I will sleep on it. Wish me luck at the show! I will be back tomorrow to let you know how we got on. Nite nite

Marten Sable Doe U/5 months



Mini Satin Buck U/5 months



Primrose Rabbit

Primrose rabbit is coming along, but is taking me a little longer than I thought so it is a good job I decided to start so early in the year if this is anything to go by. Far to many distractions are keeping me from my knitting.

I am glad to report thought that she is nearly finished her knickerbockers are complete and her jumper is half done, so it shouldn't be to long now.. please come back and check in a weeks time!
