So, at last, the groom is sewn and stuffed. He has a goatee, like the real groom and the hair colour match is pretty realistic! He has a teeny tiny cravat pin, wing collar on his shirt and a flower matching the ones in the brides bouquet ... aren't they dapper!
I just hope the real groom will be as protective of my sister, the bride, as this groom is of his.
Meanwhile, I have been celebrating my birthday, perhaps with a little more fervour and champagne than government guidelines suggest is good for me; but hey it was good quality champagne, it lasted all day and it made me happy. And, lovely as it was, it's not going to be repeated for a bit of a while :(
One special gift was from a dear friend, who crocheted me a lovely hug ...
a warm snuggly, merino cosy, beautifully made, with love, care and thought ... how nice is that!
Meanwhile, my first ever spinning to knitting project was a success ... ok only rabbit size ... but the sweater looks good. Next time I may try for something larger than hand sized!
And here is chocolate bunny wearing the sweater ... it's not the best photo ever, but sadly I didn't check before BatBunny went to live with DD ...
Finally it's only 3 days until I fly out to Oz ... I haven't packed, or made a list. I haven't decided what I'll wear ... but I did finish my knitting!!
Keep safe
xx
