Mark was out very, very early this morning to go to the office to find out.........
............his meeting had been cancelled. He got back approx 5pm.
I stayed in as Cassie was frozen up. When I took Roman to school he said "Oh poor Cassie, it is a shame for her"! So glad I went shopping yesterday instead of today.

Anais said she had a netball match after school and most probably they would be playing outside, she took her leggings, headband to cover up her ears and fingerless gloves.
I thought I would try to crochet her these fingerless gloves out of the library book for her.

They looked like this once the granny stripes were completed...........
......and here they are finished.
Very pretty, apart from..............
..................I did the pattern exactly using DK wool and a 4mm hook and they came out TINY :-(
They don't even fit Roman, such a shame as they are so pretty.
I will have to have another go at them and either use aran wool instead of DK or extend the starting chain to make them wider.
The granny stripes are very pretty though. I remembered seeing a granny stripe blanket on Attic 24 blog. I wasn't planning on doing any more blanket's as done four already (grey granny, cream flower granny, stripe 1 and stripe 2). I may use up some of my many balls of coloured wool doing this blanket though (maybe when we are in the caravan?). You can never have too many blankets, and they are very pretty!
Anais' netball match was cancelled due to the snow so she went to drama club instead. She walked home................. in her PE kit (shorts and t shirt) which was very silly as it was very cold and looked like this outside................

Roman said no-one was allowed to play outside at playtime due to the snow so his teacher taught them how to finger knit. He has never been interested in wool before but came home and wanted to have a go and made a HUGE finger knitted chain. It is taller than Mark!
When Anais came in she put on "Merlin".
Which prompted Roman to bring down his castle and try to re-create the scene's on the TV.
I changed Anais and Roman's beds today. Here are their ripples blankets on their beds - perfect single bed size. This makes me very proud and happy!
