Tea-cozy Cuteness!

A little bit of fun!.  I recently knitted this :

Little Tea-cozy House, it took me a couple of days to complete the decoration (I'm a perfectionist hahaha!)
Knitted in Sirdar Country Style.
I knitted the main area of the house first, in two pieces, which I  then stitched together.  I knitted the roof next in Garter Stitch. Then set about making the windows, doors and other accessories.



The front of the house, complete with running plant and flowers, window shutters, door handles and door knocker.



Back of house, complete with potato sack, sweeping brush, ladder and split door with handles.
I was so taken with my creation, that I have been looking at buying a teapot just so I can knit one for myself hahaha!

Frustrating!

I do wholeheartedly apologise to you little blog, for the lack of photos and posts over the past month.  I have had no laptop for 23 days. It comes home for one day and has to be sent back (very cross!!!). It has a new mother board, but Technical Support forgot to synchronize the sound card with the new mother board (they call themselves professionals).
I have managed to steal a few seconds on my O/Hs laptop, while he is sleep lol.  I just have to fathom out how to send pictures to the new system, hahaha. So fear not little blog, you will have loads of  new photos of lovely projects (that I have been knitting since I have had no laptop) coming soon.
For everyone who reads my blog.  I  have a big announcement to make within the next week.Oooohhhhh! Squee!  Very exciting.
Love Squirrel xx
