I have just been scouting around on the Mokum Textiles website looking at all of their inspiring fabrics. Mokum are a Sydney based company who distribute are large range of European fabrics, as well as designing their own range. They also have a show room at 624 Burwood Rd, East Hawthorn that you could visit.

Look at these!!! If this doesn't make you want to take up making cute stuff I don't know what will! They are made from linens, wool, mohair wool, cotton, tweed... a bit of everything. Oh to be so talented!

Jocelyn Warner Wallpapers

I love a good wallpaper and this is from a range of great prints by British textile designer Jocelyn Warner.

Food for thought - Raspberry Sponge Cake Roll

Yum. Just like Granny used to make (or Sara Lee depending on who was feeding you). Just thought you'd all appreciate a weekend recipe to keep you occupied courtsey of the ever impressive Delicious Days.

Hoilday Ornament Swap

I've just signed up for the Hoilday Ornament Swap. I think it's such a great idea as I collect christmas ornaments and when you sign up you make 8 to send and you'll receive 8 in return! How exciting! Form all over the world too!

Anna, is this acceptable?

I came across this while hunting around on the net for knitting patterns and it brought such a smile to my face that I thought I should share it with you all. 'The First Completely Knitted Wedding' by Cast-Off in the UK. The curator of this exhibition 'Ceremony' was none other than the bride herself, Freedie Robins. Everything at the wedding was knitted, from the cameras, to the dress and even the food. Take a look at Gallery 1 & Gallery 2 to appreciate the sheer magnitude. All the knitters and their friends were invited to attend the wedding.

On that note I thought you may like to get knitting your very first completely knitted Christmas with these free patterns, Mini Christmas Stocking, Christmas Tree Ornament and one for the lads a Beer Cozy.


But wait, there's more... this really is the BeDazzler of 'Haute Couture Knitting'. It'll make your day, really! Please scroll right to the bottom...because you get not 1 not 5 not 10 but 150!
