A FO, and lovely crafty gift from a special friend!!

It's a gorgeous Friday morning here in Dundee, the sun is shining and it's crisp but warmish outside. I am so blessed!!!

Today I am going to share a recent FO with you, it was a test knit for my knitting friend Carle, she is the genius behind Nurturing Fibres yarn. The pattern is called Sunny Days Shawlette, and it is available for purchase HERE on Ravelry!! It took me longer to finish than it should have, because my knitting mojo totally abandoned me during the process, but once I knuckled down and sat and knit on it for a good couple of hours, it was done, and I am overjoyed with the end result. It is a stunning shawl, and it really is an eye-catching item when worn!! Carle specially dyed the orange yarn for me, so I can wear this with my orange Mary-Janes!!!

I am linking up with Linda's Creative Friday was well as FO Fridays!!

And while I am busy here, I would like to share an item that was made for me by my special friend Sharon, from Sharon's Kardz Korner. Sharon and I have met on-line years ago, when we were on the same DT, and we have been friends ever since. She is one talented gal!!!

She really spoilt me don't you think. I am going to use this lovely notebook all the time, and will think of Sharon every time I use it!!

I am casting on for a new item tonight. I am part of the RSA team over at Ravelry, and the Ravellenics are a huge deal where ladies all over the world cast on during the start of the Olympics. It is going to be fun. I am so looking forward to the Opening Ceremony tonight, pity it's so late, hope I can stay awake!!

Have a great weekend my crafty friends xxxx
