My first experience of lace work! I really enjoyed this and apart from the frustration of trying to frog sections that went wrong (very hard to do with patterns like this I've discovered) I really enjoyed it! This WIP photo shows the colour off to the best advantage.
Rather than waste the leftover grey acrylic I made Chef a lovely ribbed iPod cosy!! Of course now I'd do it in the round but then, it was folded in half and sewn up!
I love this scarf and the pattern was alot of fun, but why oh why did I listen to the pattern and only do 43 rows??? Very peculiar and so short it barely goes round my neck! Teen has taken custody of it and now wears it like a cravat!
When your children cry "Mummy, knit me a teddy" what can you do but pick up your needles? Brown yarn courtesy of a 99p mystery lot of yarn from eBay! Scarves from leftover Debbie Bliss cotton from the stripey bag!
I'm 35 (dont look a day over 34.5) and happily married to my wonderful hubby Chef. Mum to 3 barking mad offspring. Teenager, Ed and Bean.
I'm an ex-pisshead who used to smoke like Didcots chimney A but gave up in July 2008, and when not knitting can mostly be found on the interwebnetthingy or with my nose in a book.
