Well after taking a lot of time talking to monster he decided he wanted to be called..... *drum roll*

Well you can find out by clicking this link.

Are you a knitter or fan of crocheting?

Hey all you lovely readers! This is a bit of a request post today.

I was linked to a site the other day that stirred my heart. The site is run by a group of people dedicated to an on going quest and they want everyone that can knit and crochet to join in. Basically what they need us to do is knit/crochet 8" squares that will be sewn together to make blankets for children that are made Orphans by Aids. There are so many dying of Aids in parts of Africa and.... well it would be easier if I just link you to the site to see for yourself. They explain exactly what they are doing and why. My request today is that you take the time to join in with this project.

If you don't know how to knit/crochet, this could be the perfect reason to start learning. There are lots of You Tube videos explaining how to do it. Nip over there and find one that suits you and get creating.

Making squares really is very easy and once you know how to knit/crochet you'll be able to whip one up in a really short time. Please, please, please find it in your heart to set aside some time to join in with this project. Use your crafty skills to help make someone else's life a little better!

Thank you!

Help me find this Monster's name!

This is my knitted monster and I need to name him. Despite giving him a big hug and taking him for a trip into the woods he still hasn't told me his name. Can any of you guess what it is. I'll read out all your suggestions to him and see which one makes him look over at me.


The person that gets the right name can claim a mini monster prize knitted from the same yarn. Put your suggestions in the comments on this blog.

Monster headache

I was determined that today I would start up blogging again, and as I have woken up with a monster headache I thought I'd find some beautiful, but fierce handmade monsters to chase the pain in my head away. Not much typing for each one, but just take it as read I love them all.
