Another Friday



It’s getting closer and closer to Christmas. 
Ana was very excited to see all the new decorations 

It was too hot to spend much time outside so we watched paw patrol episodes. 
One after another after another lol 

We did walk to the shed twice. She wanted to see grandpa. Unfortunately both times he was gone getting parts 

The apricots are ripening and Ana wanted to try one

I broke one in half and shared it with her   

She loved them. After that. Every time we went past we got a snack. 





Here she is enjoying her half of the apricot. She only got half every time. Don’t want her to get a tummy upset 



The new secretary, or is it the CEO. 
Either way she was very comfortable 




Once it cooled down we watered all the pot plants. Ana loves to help.  She noticed when plants had grown or had flowers. She got very excited and yell grandma come quick. So I could see it too

Boud from field and fen blog. Link above 
Showed us her comfort dolls knitting. 

I remember making a few with our knitting group and decided to make  some. 

I googled for the pattern, I couldn’t read the one Boud posted. Bad eyes 

And I found so many variations 

Little girl dolls 



Koalas and many More 




I started this one today. I thought I’d make some for my girls. While I’m practicing and making mistakes 

Ana asked me to tell her what I was making. 

I showed her the picture and she decided she needed two dolls. A pink one and a purple one. 

She then told me I had to make some for her girls
Melody and Brianna. I love how she always thinks of them 






Here is the link to the page I found. 
They are fee patterns and you can save them in Ravelry 

Now everyone has left. Including hubby, I have no idea where, I’ve had a relaxing soak in the bath. I’m in my pjs. 
I’ll find something to watch on the telly 
And I’ll keep making dolls 

If you decide to try any of the patterns please share. I’d love to see how they all turn out

  2. Love your CEO. She looks so comfortable in her role.
    I've seen those dolls before but not made one. I just might. I've ended up crocheting squares again. So easy, peaceful crafting

    1. Oh yes. I love crocheting squares. There is a charity that accepts crochet squares and sends them off to Africa for the ladies to sew together and have a blanket to use or share. I saw it a few years ago. But I can’t remember what it was called.
