Descent into Fuzzy Blackness

Published by on May 30, 2008 | 4 Responses

After my Ebay Boo Boo, I thought I should really give the Kid Soft a whirl. After all, it’s a Rowan yarn I’d never heard of, let alone knit with. It would be educational…. After some research, I found that there’s only two publications for Kid Soft. The Kid Soft Booklet and a “concertina card” […]

It seems like ages since I’ve been able to show you a finished garment I’ve made for myself. **Imagine sounds of frantic typing and checking*** Hmmm – it has been months!

I want to don’t bore you with my rapid but visually unexciting progress with Bowie, so I thought I’d show you what everybody else at “The Guilty Knitters” is making. (Click the link to see why we are Guilty!!) These ladies are unbelievably creative and prolific. The wonderful thing is that we all like knitting […]
