| Knitting :2445: :2445: :2445:
I was looking for dog blankets on ebay and people are kitting them and selling them for 20 quid upwards :san41: so I decided to give it a go, if they can, so can I :2445:
If they dont look good, my dogs wont mind, which is prob the way they will go, I'm crap at this sort of thing :san42: | |

| Well done Paula, I have bought some nice blankets years ago for the dogs from Charity shops, blankets for humans not dogs, they were nice and big and lovely and comfy so I got them for the dogs  never had to worry for 50p a time | |

| We went in a few charity shops but didnt have much luck so I thought I would make some I have about 20 rows but that took me all night last night, so I Mimi might get hers when shes old and can hardly walk :2445: :2445: :2445: I did teach myself though with the help of some crappy instructions on a sheet of paper I'm doing some crochet too but I did a little as a kid so that came flooding back once I started | |
