A personal touch: Advice for a knitted present

Recommended Posts

i never made it to the meet last night as i had to go back to liverpool but i managed to get the duck finished!

 

i havnt got internet at home at mo due to moving last week so i can text a pic of the finished article to someone?

 

i had to use a different hat from a baby duck because i never had the right needles but it worked well..

 

I would really love to see this duck :) When are you giving this to your Mum - or has she got it already following your trip to Liverpool?

it took me ages and that was duck v3. i had ballsed earlier attemps up and i did get help with the feet, very tricky they were!!!

 

i dont think i will try anything else at the moment, maybe in the future, but i have an incredible amount on at the moment and am going to do an electronics project!

 

but it was fun trying something new and all your help was appreciated :D

That's just one of the dangers of putting so much effort into a present for your Mum. We told you she'd love it!!
