Some readers may have noticed a lack of crochet related updates on my blog, well that's firstly because I'd been working on a Christmas present for my niece since my last update and actually that last update was indeed my working on my niece’s present.

Well after working on it a little less than usual because of a lack of train rides I managed to finish it off Christmas day (horrible I know) but I did stay up until 3am trying to finish her off, with Big Bang Theory and Spartacus to keep my brain awake while I crochet away.

I really quite enjoyed working on the piece and it really is the largest project I've ever worked on, so I'm very pleased with how it turned out. I only wish that I could have added a few more finishing touches but I'd run out of time.
