IHSW and Ornament SAL - April 2013

First of all I'm glad with my new followers! It proves that I've got some things to say and show that interest people. LOL!!! I've been working on a couple of projects in the meantime. First of all I've finished knitting the back part of my eldest DD's dress (see previous message). I've also started and finished my monthly April ornament. It's a little bit smaller than the other ornaments that I've shown the last months because my other stitching was more time consuming.

I had to google certain things because I'm a beginner and some of the explanation given was more for the intermediate knitter in my opinion (luckaly not much though).   P

Happy Easter!
