Craziness of Christmas

I have to show you the lovely cake my sister made for my birthday this year. Isn't it just great?! I'm not a girly type of girl but every year she makes me a cake with pink icing as it's become a tradition, whose origin in now lost in time.

So this year I got a pink ball of wool with a crafty cat sat on top! Excellent! And it tasted delicious too!

 I've found some time to knit some nonsense! We have a cat at work Big Tom who comes in the shop everyday who sleeps and eats and the leaves again.

Big Tom

We have decided to get him neutered so we have been holding the Mr Thomas' No more nuts' appeal! I've been knitting nonsense to sell to raise money.  Patterns from Ravelry 'May the mouse be with you' and 'Beans the cat'.

I did find some time to make cranberry and port sauce..yummy and the most gorgeous deep red colour. Some for us and some as presents.

Wishing all  my friends and customers and very Merry Christmas wherever you are in the world and bright blessings and good fortune for 2015...and lots of yarn!
