Halo Cushion

I finished 3 WIPs this weekend. Three! *does dance*

Two of these are for the imminent arrival of a friend’s baby and this one was in real danger of becoming an UFO.

Odds & Ends

My projects for KnitBritish do appear slow in coming, if the blog is anything to go by!

I assure you I am not just buying British wool, but I am working with it too!

Works in Progress

When I decided I was going to undertake this project I knew I would need a special kind of book to keep within samples of the lovely yarns I was soon to discover.

things there to be noticed

The colours today were just phenomenal. I love Shetland on a day like today. I feel like days like this are only shown in a certain light so that we notice things around us and appreciate them more.

British Wool Under a Tenner

Last week I highlighted a few yarns of 100% UK wool which hopefully wouldn’t dent even the tightest yarn purse strings. If you have a few extra pennies to spend on your stash this month (does anyone else *try* to budget for stash?) then you might be interested in reading on.

Off and Running

I have three items on the pins at the moment. I don’t think I have ever allowed myself that before, usually because it feels way too dis-organised – like I can’t settle on a project, but I am in love with these yarns and am in full-swing KnitBritish!

A British Wool-Along: Throwing down the gauntlet

I have mentioned before that the Woolsack group on Ravlery have a thread to discuss ideas for your own projects knit with British wool. I was late catching onto the group and if you a not familiar with Woolsack I highly recommend that you have a browse of the website.
