Busy Weekend

The weekend always seems to literally whizz by, I can't believe it's Monday again already.

This weekend I went to the Jersey Live festival with my best friend and it was brilliant!

We were there just to see Bastille really, but the whole festival was fantastic. Bastille were absolutely amazing.

On the main stage before Bastille were several other bands including Deep Valley, a band that Hannah and I had not heard of before but we fell in love with them. They really have real girl power.

Here's my festival kit: I went in wearing my flower-festival headband, my money belt, and my little fake tattoos. I left with my Jersey Live wrist band, a friendship bracelet from Hannah (I got her one too) and my new DOPE cap, I felt so G.

My fake tattoos today, looking a little bit tatty...

My lovely friendship bracelet from my best friend :)

My favourite thing ever: my money belt, I safely stored my phone, ID, money and ticket in there, and didn't have to worry about carrying a bag.

The next 'Just Another Miffy Monday' will be next Monday (it's not a weekly feature). Back to knitting tomorrow!

The plan...

      I was chatting to my best friend the other day and told her that I was planning a mega-sort out of my wool in order to:

a) be more organised

b) be more creative

c) save money

      The idea is to sort out all of my left overs from years of my own projects and also my mum's (she is a great sorter-outer and I often benefit from this). I said that on the weekend I was going to sort it all out and assign a project to every last scrap so that I could:

a) tidy up

b) have lots and lots of knitting to do for the near future

c) not need to buy any wool for quite a while

      If I can get through all of that wool then I will really enjoy the next time I go to my favourite wool shop and buy something new. 

      I intend to make lots of Christmas presents (I'm particularly good at hats, and who doesn't love a good pom pom?) which will also save me money, and little accessories such as hearts and flowers.

      I am definitely a knitter, however I have always wanted to try crochet but have never plucked up the courage. I think another one of my projects will be to learn (thank you, YouTube) to crochet.

      So, the plan for this blog (among other things) is to record my progress with this wool-athon. 

      I have to add a thank you to One Sheepish Girl for completely inspiring me to be more creative and to start a blog. Thank you!
