The News I'd Been Waiting For
arrived yesterday afternoon via text message. The message was from my assessor saying that I had passed my NVQ level 3 in Early Years Care and Education after £700 worth of course fees and two years worth of hard work. Relief is a wonderful feeling.
It's a good thing really, ‘cos I completely cleared the dining room table on Monday afternoon which has been my work station since Christmas :-) All I have to do now is collect my folders from college and that is, sadly, that; I'll certainly miss going into college every week and seeing the people on my course.
Knitterly Stuff
I suppose I'd better make a start on the little cardigan I want to knit for one of my school playground friends whose baby is due in about two and a half weeks time.
I have a little garter stitch cardigan pattern in mind that I knitted up a few months ago for a friend at playgroup, so hopefully it won't take long to knit up. I have another little present for the baby too, so if things don't go quite according to timescale, I have a contingency plan up my sleeve. I'm planning on using some cream Sirdar Baby Care DK yarn from my stash for stashbusting purposes.
Oh, and this arrived today from Get Knitted - I've had a quick look through this afternoon and I already want to knit the ribbed jacket shown in the second picture:
I've been mentally trawling through my stash to find acceptable substitutes!! I love both the colour and the style - definitely a Melody knit for the future that one.

Congrats on passing your course. Great news.
The Yarn Harlot http://www.yarnharlot.ca/blog/ appears to have the power to stop babies being born until she has finished knitting for them. Maybe you have this power too - but don't test it out for too long - there is nothing worse than going overdue by more than a few days imho.
Congratulations on your NVQ!
There are some lovely things in that Cathay book!
Woo Hoo! for passing your course!! So school is done now??
I love the cranberry colored sweater... what yarn is it asking for?? The baby pattern is adorable --looks like a pretty fast knit too -- (of course,for me that would mean the baby would be three by the time I finished it!!)
Congratulations Mrs Debs!
I like the DB book but I'm trying to stop buying knitting books and patterns as they are slowly overtaking the entire house :)
Deb I want to congratulate you on getting through your course .It is NEVER easy doing any sort of course when you have young children !!!!
Well done you .
Lots of love ,
