Retro brain

Yes yes I have retro on the brain.. here are a couple of things that are not budging from my head since I’ve seen them.. There is this.. (if only I had a little more wall space in my hall or kitchen!) I found as browsing through lene’s blog which was created by a rather marvelous friend of hers called Nathalie who’s creations can be viewed here I’m rather liking the Jul owl decorations.. yep now you want a peak!

Mum’s the word

Then there’s my amazingly talented mum, has the touch of an angel when it comes to anything yarn, I just saw her latest creation on her little shop bloggy and as always am delighted by her and her beauty and patience.. The photos are also super and an example of the talent that runs in our family- I believe that perhaps my father took these snaps and that my little sister edited them, perhaps she took one of them too.. you can see more of her photography here.

And then there are these! Which I was a very lucky girl to receive.. from my finder brother in laws one whom has an amazing antique store- what a find and how lucky am I to be thought of as the receiver for such a find! There is a whole collection of well cared for knitting pins plus sewing and Knitting magazines dating back to the 50’s! Check out the Pom pom templates..
