A new doorstop and more crochet

I,m hooked on making these newsboy caps, they are so enjoyable to make, its a pattern by thnkdfrent.etsy.com
I'm slowly trying to fill up my etsy shop and get back into blogging.


Yesterday i came home from work and decided i need a new doorstop and here it is.The fabric which i used for the sail boat is in the sale at Ikea along with lots of others and its reduced to £1.50 a metre.... bargin.

we're home

we look a bit worn out here but have just climbed up hundreds of steps.


the kids even managed to get in the sea











We are back from our hols and have had a lovely time at the Algarve, the weather was nice, i even coped ok with the flight bit and sat near the window coming home.We stayed in a lovely appartment which was very nice and had everything close by with just a short walk down to the beach, my sister in law owns it which was lucky for us so if anyone fancies renting it i can fully recomend it!
We are all a bit sad to be back home now though and its so cold.
