Envelope and Knitting
Hi All and happy weekend. Hope you enjoy all that you have planned and thank you for your visit.
There a mail art challenge at PaperArtsy and I have just time to join in before it closes tomorrow
I used one of Astrid's freebie papers and they are beautiful enough to just use on their own for an envelope but as it is for a challenge I did do some stamping on it after printing it out onto a 5x5 inch envelope. Thank you Astrid for your kindness.
Lots of small stamps added in Distressed ink.
I always knit when I am watching television or I just fall asleep. Here are lots of hats I have knitted and I am hoping a neighbour will take them to the cancer unit for the patients who lose their hair. The neighbour is just finishing her chemo and her hair is growing back--I am so pleased for her. People give me lots of wool and I just love making up things I can use it for.
Have agreat day
Love Chrissie xx

Wow- your page is beautiful, but your knitting is amazing. I love to knit but haven't done as much of it this year so far as I would like. I am impressed you made so many colorful and fun hats! Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteYou volunteer to support SO many wonderful causes. No wonder you are much loved in both the real world and the blogging community. Those hats are more than likely a godsend to people who have lost their hair.
