Slings...

It's been a while since I've had time to update so here goes for a mammoth amounts of posts!

I've generally always been a Didy girl with the odd Girasol, Hopp and Lana thrown in when it comes to my wrap stash. Just before Oliver was born I snagged an Oscha JK Coll Ooki off FSOT and despite it being a size smaller than I prefer I was hooked! Once the Natural Mama Oscha's started arriving and I saw one in the flesh I knew I needed one and sure enough, once our shortie arrived it was love at first site.

I was then lucky enough to be online as the new Oscha's were uploaded to the shop and was incredibly naughty (been a long time since I brought a new release!) But it was so worth it as we are amazingly in love with our new Oscha Roses Scarista <3

Too many WIP's...

...and no where near enough time to knit (or blog, for that matter although I have every intention of getting back on that wagon!)


On the needles at the moment I have:
a Versa for Rachael in James C Brett Marble Chunky (MC29)
an Ashton Shawlette in Kauni (EY)
and a barely started Spectra in Araucania Ranco which I acid dyed black, along with some Tropical Fish Zauberball.

The Versa is the farthest along and has been on the go the longest so I'm going to try to attempt to finish it first, despite it being totally unseasonal now!

There really are six now


Oliver Lucas arrived at 6.20am on 29th March 2012, born unassisted after a 35 minute labour, weighing a squishy 10lb 11.5oz.

Shiny New Blog!

It's been a while since I abandoned my last blog and since it's the time of year for new beginnings again, here's a new one! The blog title <then there were six> is a bit of misnomer at the moment as I'm sat here at 40+1 weeks pregnant waiting for our 4th baby to arrive (the photo below is the bump 3 days ago). As is typical with our family, he is proving to be slightly stubborn but it does at least mean I have some extra time to set up and start this blogging lark!

As to what you're likely to be bored by if you stick around to read...waffle about knitting, babywearing, life as an autonomous home edding family, probably a bit about dieting (well, the lack of for the moment) and if my current mood is anything to go by, lots of non specific ranting!
