Leaving on a jet plane . . .

". . . my bags are packed I'm ready to go,  I'm standing here outside your door, I hate to wake you up to say good-bye. . ."

Well actually my bags are still waiting to be packed and I'm not nearly as organized as I should be but I've been running around all week trying to get things ticked off my "To do-before-I-go" List and I really didn't want to leave without saying goodbye.  I'll be taking a wee bloggy break whilst enjoying the  (hopefully, because I will be most disappointed if it's not)  sunshine of the beautiful Caribbean islands.

I shall not be completely idle on the crafty front though, because you know I always have to have a holiday project on the go too.  Time spent hanging around airports and on long-haul flights just seems so much more tolerable when one's hands and mind are happy, don't you think ?

 

So my little knitting bag (don't you just love those cute wee sheeps?) is brimming with yarny goodness and I can't wait to make a start.

I promise to show & tell when I get back, but in the meantime I'll leave you with an update on the Shari's Chevron Blankie project:  I am so loving this pattern.

Thanks for all the lovely comments on my previous post - you really do say the kindest things - and a big welcome to my newest followers too  : - )

I haven't managed to do as much blog reading as I'd have liked to lately, but I do hope that things will be calmer on my return and I'm looking forward to catching up with you then.

"So kiss me and smile for me, tell me that you'll wait for me . . ."

'til next time,

take care & be happy

xoxo
