Short//WIP Wednesday

Not much to share this week, hence the title - plus I'm unwell again, having a long-term illness has it's issues (to read more check out HERE) but I'll be fine again, I'm having some good days and some bad ones. I haven't really knit much this past week and I haven't finished the baby cardigan. I'm hoping to sit and knit on that this afternoon.

So I have been working on a little gift knit, it's another elephant but this one is Esther the Eccentric Elephant (or Lenny as I am calling him), I'm using Candy Skein yarn for the first time, it's beautiful:
 I started knitting on this is spinal wrap, it's going slowly and I've already had to frog it once - because I didn't read it properly but it's really pretty - I think it will need blocked once it's knitted up:
 And the last thing I want to share is my brand new birthday project bag:
Isn't it cute???? That's all from me for today, remember to check out my 30th birthday giveaway!!!!

  9. OMG that bag is darling! Especially fitting since you're on an elephant roll!
    I'm knitting Candy Skein yarn too right now; doesn't it have the most delicious springyness? Your blues are just perfect for that little elephant!
