I have been so terrible at blogging that it may have seemed like I had retired. I have seen other blogs disappear, but I am still here. I realise having a blog is not quite the thing it once was, but I think of my blog as a little bit of a diary, so hope I will not give up on it.
I used to put on posts to pad out from crafting, with other things - gardening and walking. I have less to show from my gardening this year in the new house, as I have not quite got to grips with the raised bed, or greenhouse. Keep looking at the lawn and thinking perhaps part of it needs to be dug up!
I decided to make a bat from my bat knitting pattern, as it is approaching that time of year. I have given him vampire teeth, but I think it just makes him look not very scary but like a debonair gentleman bat.
No pumpkins, but I managed to grow one Turk's Turban Squash. It is not very big, but is very pretty.
You can find the Bat Pattern on ravelry or Etsy. They do not take long to make, and it would be nice to have a whole chain of them. You could mix them up with some knitted Little Pumpkins.
Just looked up that a group of bats is called a colony, although a group of flying bats can be called a cauldron.
