Looking back over the recent posts it appears that I've made no mention of any of the knitting I've been doing since the start of the year. Its not been a lot compared to other years but there has been some.
I finally got my stash cupboard sorted and can now see what I have. I really shouldn't be buying any more yarn for some time....
These are the projects that have found their way off my needles
 |
| Balaclavas for the boys |
 |
| for Claire |
 |
| Holden shawl for Rachel |
 |
| Easy Street shawl |
 |
Shawl I made up using odd stitches and
using Northern Lights yarn |
 |
| Saroyan scarf using WYS Aire Valley Fusion aran |
 |
| Yarn purchases from the Edinburgh Yarn Festival |
 |
| Ten stitch blanket using WYS Aire Valley Fusion aran |
 |
for Jessica - using Stylecraft Special DK -
pattern Stylecraft 8980 |

| Ode to Pinstriping - for Sara |
Another Ten stitch blanket is currently underway. This one is for Gus. I'm using up blues and greens from my stash for this one. It is chunky weight, I use as many strands as I need to get 7 wraps per inch. I'm a bit anal about completing each round in the same colours so have to judge my quantities carefully, not so easy as it gets bigger
I also have the yarn to make Gus a new hooded cardigan but as yet to get that one started. So much yarn so many possibilities......
Now I know why your 10 stitches always looks so neat and tidy. Slap in the forehead moment for me.
ReplyDeleteThat's a lots of knitting considering renovations in two countries and all the travels!
