Completed Knit Report

It made me the KSH junkie I am today…

Published by on April 16, 2010 | 8 Responses

Halcyon is storming along and so far, is a very enjoyable knit. I’ve made both of the peplums, picked up the stitches for the back – VERY carefully and neatly… From Halcyon and started rampaging towards the armholes … From Halcyon OK I say ‘rampaging’…I probably mean slowly and meticulously plodding through the rows, checking […]

Catching Up

Published by on April 5, 2010 | 4 Responses

Oh Boy! I seem to have blinked and it’s been over a month since my last blog post – Sorry readers – I’ve been bad and neglected you 🙄 First I was busy with work – but in a good way. Learning new stuff, meeting new people but under some tough deadlines, doing long days […]

Knitted Something I DO Like!

Published by on February 21, 2010 | 4 Responses

My blog posts have been a bit negative, whiney and full of knitterly woe lately – mainly when Big Wool is being discussed 🙁 High time I tell you about a project I really like 😀 Remember the beret I made for my sister that Thug modelled? This one… I liked it very much and […]

Worst EVER!

Published by on February 21, 2010 | 9 Responses

Three guesses how Ronnie, the Big Wool Sloppy Joe turned out… Here’s a clue… Yep, it’s bonfire time. I finished the beast last week but have been so disapointed, I couldn’t bring myself to blog it 🙁 It is huge. It’s probably too huge for my sister too. I fact – it’s too huge for […]

Hat Need

Published by on January 23, 2010 | 8 Responses

My sister has a hat need. I have needles, an obscene amount of yarn and knit skills. There’s only one way this can turn out 🙂 Given that my knitting has not been going well, I plumped for an easy option that I knew worked. Do you remember the Accidental hat? (Snug from Rowan 42) […]

Ben Wants a Quickie.

Published by on January 20, 2010 | 3 Responses

Ben was very sheepish over Christmas (no wool related pun intended)…he was especially awkward when I was knitting… Finally he found the courage to confess the problem… …he’d lost his Iphone cosy I’d made for him – on the train – Grrrr!!! If you remember, readers, he also lost a hat I’d lovingly made for […]

It’s Very Green

Published by on September 26, 2009 | 7 Responses

Thug has been very busy preparing to move house. Fortunately he has still found time to help me with the finishing of Cheer. I would get mad at him sitting on my freshly blocked knitting but how could I resist this face? I did say Cheer wouldn’t take long but pressures of work, preparing for  […]

The Culling of the Wardrobe…

Published by on May 23, 2009 | 5 Responses

My wardrobes are overflowing – which is very bad as I remodelled to bedroom two years ago and made more wardrobe space! I’ve been very disciplined lately and taken great bags full of “stuff” to the charity shop. Now the hard bit…I need to cull the shelf where my hand knits live. I found three […]

I Love Hildegard

Published by on May 27, 2008 | 10 Responses

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! Back in February, I showed you Branwen! 😯 Time to rectify that shameful situation… Hildegard is finished and she is lovely! I finished sewing […]
