Finally, a Bit of Fluff

Published by on February 3, 2009 | 13 Responses

Mewsley may be a bully but she made me finish my Lacey Top. It’s taken me a horrendous 2 months to knit! I have knit socks and a cushion cover in that time too. Wanna see my little bit of fluff?? And the back view… It’s very fluffy and soft – and warm!   I […]

Avoidance, Procrastination and Excuses

Published by on February 1, 2009 | 8 Responses

I’ve not done a lot of knitting in the last week or two. I have an excuse (this is where I need a note from my Mum)… ..I have STILL been sick with this cold/flu type virus thingy. I’ll spare you the gory details but suffice it to say, after two months of all the […]

Chunky Twisted Ribbon Cushion

Published by on January 19, 2009 | 4 Responses

I’ve accidentally designed a cushion! I’ve had a bit of a sore elbow – tendonitis probably. A friend of mine suggested knitting with my right arm resting on a cushion , and having a project on thick needles handy to alternate with the fine Kidsilk Haze project. The fine finger movements of tiny metal needles […]

Top Secret – Declassified

Published by on December 22, 2008 | 7 Responses

Do you remember, way back in March, how excited I was to be knitting as sample for KnitOnTheNet?  I first blogged it in “Top Secret Project – Shhhhh“.  The big downer of the project was that I couldn’t show it to you until the book it was for was out (understandable really!) Guess what, A […]

Fast ‘n’ Stripey

Published by on December 20, 2008 | 2 Responses

Once I’d finished my Hedera socks I needed some commuting knitting. I was mean to Ben. Look, Ben. Look at this lovely ball of yarn. You’d like a pair of socks in this WOULDN’T YOU?? “Urmmmm”, said Ben, looking scared “Is ‘Yes’ the right answer?” I graciously agreed to make Ben a pair of socks […]

Have you knitted a loo seat?

Published by on December 19, 2008 | 2 Responses

Forgive me readers for I have sinned. It has been two weeks since my blog post… I’m kinda convinced life is out to get me – just when I thought the dental trauma was sorted, I caught a heavy cold and have been knocked for six. All I’ve done is sleep, and drag myself into […]

Purple Scarfery

Published by on December 6, 2008 | 4 Responses

Well I said it was quick! 😀 I’ve finished my “So Called Scarf” already. It was a great travelling knit until I got onto the second skein on Manos. Then it was too big to fit comfortably in my handbag. I then had to do more of it at home. Mewsley decided to “help” me […]

Hedera Training Complete

Published by on November 20, 2008 | Leave a response

My Pink Hedera. I can’t believe these have taken 4 months to complete. I suppose they have never been my mainstream knitting, relegated to being a handy small thing for trains and planes. As they have been done entirely when I’m on the move I consider them “bonus knitting” from otherwise wasted time. But finally, […]

For the Geeky Man Who has Everything

Published by on November 2, 2008 | 4 Responses

What do you knit for a very Geeky man (I say that affectionately) who has everything knitted he wants and a couple of items over that requirement? “Nothing!” I hear you cry, “Knit  for yourself!” Hmmmm…that might work but I’m a generous soul….some people even call me “pushy”… “You need a lovely scarf now the […]

When an Old Knit Dies….

Published by on October 11, 2008 | 6 Responses

First a confession – I’ve barely knit this week. I’ve been on an intensive training course for work all week- my evenings were “study til you fall asleep” territory 😯 When I got home on Friday and changed clothes, I pulled out an old knit from the back of the wardrobe to relax in…. Oh […]
