W.I.P no 5 blanket...






I'm still trying to get my blanket done, Ive constantly got it on my knee lol !! but I'm pleased to say its rippling now ! I'm much happier with it. my husband recons its going to take 8 weeks to complete  and that's made me determined to do it as fast as possible and prove him wrong !!
while I'm sitting there doing this blanket I'm thinking to myself what Xmas pressies i can make this year. last Xmas i made homemade hampers for relatives everyone had a mixture of homemade wine , jams , chutneys and marmalade ! I think this year there are going to be some hats as well in their hampers !!
I made some more marmalade last night and Ive already sold some on my little stall outside my house, i also made some chili jam which is delish !!
here's how far I've got with my blanket....

  5. Love that blanket! I am going to look up this "chili jam" you speak of, sounds like it could be a great way to use up the overabundance of chilies that came out of the garden this year :)
