Rudolph the red nose reindeer, had a very shiny nose!

Good morning and how are you all this Monday?
Another busy shift for me in work this morning, cleaning all the way today.
Whilst I am beavering away I thought I'd share the recent crochet project that I have been telling you about for a wee while.  My lovely friend Gayle has now got her present, which I told her to open immediately and start using.  You will understand why when you see the photograph.
I hate to admit it but I am really happy with the results from this pattern, I freely admit I wasn't sure about it when I first started it.  By the finish I was actually wanting to keep it, which is always a good sign if you are making it as a gift.  If I like it then I'm sure the recipient will too.

Without further ado, here's Rudolph from all angles.




The pattern is from Millionbells which I purchased on line.  How cute it he, I really must make one for myself now.
My friend loves a novelty tea cosy so I thought this would be right up her street, and it was.
I am so glad she loved it as some of you might have seen from my Facebook page.

I spent yesterday getting in a little baking before Christmas but more about that later this week.
The Christmas cake production has started too, or should a say the fruit is stewing in alcohol as we speak.
As for Saturday, it was a busy one at work but the highlight of the day for me was the Strictly final.  
It was such a fantastic show, all the finalists were amazing but as Ore hadn't danced at all before I do think he was a worthy winner.  
Personally I did have my eyes on Danny to win, (who wouldn't with his Samba, I could watch it on wraparound 💖) that guy can move!

That is all from me today, I hope you have a good one.  As Arnold would say, "I'll be back" tomorrow with some more Christmas crafty fun.
