Stitch 'n' Ting: I've been quiet because we're on the move!
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/08/ive-been-quiet-because-were-on-move.html
Tuesday, August 13, 2013. I've been quiet because we're on the move! I'm so sorry that I've neglected my blog for so long. I can't believe it's been nearly two months since I've posted anything! Our actual SOLD sign! We've been oh so busy as we're on the move! We've managed to sell our house (after waiting 6 months for it to shift! And we've had a completion date set to move into our new house on August 23rd. It's been pretty manic in the Stitch household as you can imagine. We sold our house! That list ...

Stitch 'n' Ting: Settling In
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/09/settling-in.html
Wednesday, September 4, 2013. It's been just over a week since we made our big move and I'm please to say that we are settling in to our new home and hometown very well. It's fantastic to be so close to family and friends again. We've had visitors every day and we've even had a baby sitter to let us go out and have a few drinks. It's been great. My mum had IQ for the few days over the move, as well as the cats, so we could get everything done without worrying about stepping on the cat/baby! We've unpacke...

Stitch 'n' Ting: The finished cardigan!
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/10/the-finished-cardigan.html
Wednesday, October 2, 2013. In my last post I wrote how I'd just started a gorgeous cardigan from Linda Permann's book, Little Crochet. I'm so pleased to say that I have finished it! It's a great pattern and it has some lovely stitches and finishing that I've just fallen in love with. I used Rico 100% cotton yarn and even though the stitches are moderately loose the cardigan is super snuggly (and surprisingly heavy! It took me around a fortnight, working an hour or so a night so maybe 20 hours in total?

Stitch 'n' Ting: Hooking in the new house
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/09/hooking-in-new-house.html
Saturday, September 7, 2013. Hooking in the new house. I'm very pleased to say that I'm back hooking again, after a substantial break. I don't know wether I lost my crochet-mojo or that life got in the way with the move and everything else going on in the background! I've not been crocheting for myself either, which is a big change! A lot of the WIPs on the go at the moment are for IQ. I was bought the Little Crochet book by Linda Permann. My first project started from the book are the Cozy Crawlers.

Stitch 'n' Ting: The not so good news about my Pfaff 300e
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/06/the-not-so-good-news-about-my-pfaff-300e.html
Wednesday, June 5, 2013. The not so good news about my Pfaff 300e. The cat is not amused. In my last post, I shared the joy that I'd repaired my Pfaff Smart 300e and I couldn't wait to begin stitching. Well, it's not all good news. I should be so lucky! I can't find the disc or the drivers ANYWHERE. I have searched and trawled the internet for the past 3 nights without any success. I've found numerous blog posts over the years by people with the same problem and it seems to be un-fixable. I'm a twenty so...

Stitch 'n' Ting: A Sunday morning canal walk
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/10/a-sunday-morning-canal-walk.html
Sunday, October 6, 2013. A Sunday morning canal walk. I think that miss IQ is having a bit of a sleep regression as this morning and yesterday she point blank refused her nap. It ended up with screaming and sobbing when I attempted it this morning so I got dressed, wrapped her up warm and took her for a walk. I'm very lucky to have the beautiful Brecon and Monmothshire canal. I also saw a gorgeous kingfisher. I didn't manage to get a photograph though as they're so very fast. But so so beautiful. Thankfu...

Stitch 'n' Ting: I'm back! Day out - Tredegar Park
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2014/06/im-back-day-out-tredegar-park.html
Friday, June 27, 2014. Day out - Tredegar Park. It's been 6 months since my last (solemn) update and 8 months since my last proper post. Apologies for that. Life has been busy and with a nearly two year old tantrumming toddler life has been a little tough - but I'm hooping to get back into craft and family blogging. Fingers crossed I can get myself motivated! Labels: family day out. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow me with bloglovin. View my complete profile. An Urban Moose Blog.

Stitch 'n' Ting: Things are starting to move on the moving front! (long post!)
http://stitchnting.blogspot.com/2013/06/things-are-starting-to-move-on-moving.html
Friday, June 14, 2013. Things are starting to move on the moving front! Squish enjoying Nannie's Garden. The weekend just passed was the busiest we've had for a long time. We left Devon on Thursday and headed back up to Wales. We always leave early so that IQ naps while we drive and wakes up fresh faced when we arrive. The weather was gorgeous and the drive was wonderful. Voucher / pendants / buttons. We walked the shortish 15 mins back down to my mum's house and all the way kept saying it was 'our house'.
