KSH Shame…

Published by on January 24, 2008 | 5 Responses

I now need a self indulgent, luxurious project. Something beautiful to wear, soft as a kitten’s belly fur and ideally something I can use some of my every growing stash on. Did I ever tell you about when I used to travel to “the London office” every Friday? Friday lunchtime could only mean one thing. […]

Blue, Blue, Electric Blue….

Or that should be… “Blue, blue, tealy blue. That’s the colour of Ben’s new top .That I just Knit!……Blueooooooo!” (to be warbled to the tune of “Sound and Vision“….) Apologies to all David Bowie fans out there. I couldn’t resist – at least you couldn’t hear me singing that – I knit far, far better […]

Knitting for Ben

Published by on January 16, 2008 | 1 Response

You may have noticed from my list of projects on my Blogiversary post that only one garment was for Ben – the Brooklyn jacket. Ohh, and a rather fine pair of Space Invader socks! I promise you that this was not because I’m a horrid selfish knitter or because of some kind of fear of […]

Why haven’t I posted for so long? Because I have been laying under a duvet on my sofa being a flu ridden Swamp Donkey (American slang for a moose that lives in the swamps or colloquial slang for a deeply unattractive woman) I’m not pretty when I have the flu….I look kinda like this… In […]

Ombre – Zigged and Zagged

Published by on December 31, 2007 | 1 Response

Did I finish Ombre for Christmas?? I’m sorry to confess… No. I got overwhelmed by the usual baking, turkey stuffing, shopping, eating, entertaining “fest” that is Christmas. I decided I was putting myself under WAY too much pressure. I try very hard to keep knitting as my pleasure and indulgence. Forcing myself to knit to […]

I’ve got Fat-Finger!

Published by on December 20, 2007 | 6 Responses

In case you’re wondering what’s happened to my Sanquhar gloves – I’ve had to put them down for a little while. Firstly, the tiny weeny 1.5mm needles were giving me blisters on my left index finger where I picked up the left hand yarn and scrapped the tip of the needle down my finger tip […]
