A tough decision

I haven’t been blogging as much as I would recently because, if I’m honest, knitting doesn’t really excite me any more. I look at all the yarn in my stash and feel nothing. And there are lots of other exciting hobbies out there, as I discovered at the weekend while browsing through the craft section of WHSmith. I went in for a padded envelope and came out with enough bits and pieces to start my new hobby – building models with matchsticks. I wanted to start small, but one kit, of a horse drawn fire engine, really stood out to me. It didn’t take long to finish, either.

This one is going to my MIL for her birthday. She loves it!

So that’s the end of knitting for me. I’ll be giving away my stash before midday today, so come along if you want a bargain! :-D And look out for more finished objects soon! This domain name will still exist while I transfer everything to www.hauntedmatchsticks.com. It’s been fun, but matches are the future.
