I just thought I have not mention about the knitted poppies this year yet and if I was knitting them again.. Well - I started knitting again back in Januray for this years appeal..
My mom never stopped knitting them from last year and the others (there is a group of knitter0 started knitting not long after me..
I made over 200 of the little poppies, my mom on the other hand did 800...
I now feel like there is a challenge on to beat the 800.. LOL!!!

Once again these little guys went on sell at the end of October.. But before we knew it that mine and my mom's poppies had gone and people where asking for more... All in total we raised for the poppy appeal was £1840 .
Next year is the 100year since the World War 1. So we are planning to do some think slightly different, to the little humble poppy. I will tell you all once we have decided...
Here is the link of part 1 and part 2 of the Humble Poppy
Please let me know what you think?
