Latest
short sleeved V neck creation.
If you
are ever tempted to do a V neck with raglan sleeves and diamond motifs, take my
advice, DON'T.
It was a real pain getting both sides to match once you're up
past the armpits.
Especially when you're using oddments to make up for the fact
you don't think you've got quite enough yarn to do the whole lot.
Hair
washed this morning and left to hang dry uncombed, hence the backwards through
hedge look.
Tylebach Really

Mrs Bun Wow LOVE ALL
OF YOUR KNITS Bentonbag xxx I'm soooooo jealous xxx
Cousin Daisy Simply
beautiful
Bess Cavalier I like
that. I'm supposed to be knitting hats
for Innocent smoothie bottles for Age UK.
Thought it would be a good way to use up scraps but I've only done one
complete one and one waiting to be sewn up.
I just don't seem to be able to get going with anything much at the
moment.
Bentonbag I know what
you mean. I'm trying to work out whether my next project should be:
doing a baby thing for a friend's expected grandchild;
doing myself a big
sloppy joe jumper for next winter on circular needles to use us some of the
yarn stash.
Mrs Quilt Use up the
stash Ben - use up the stash - do you want some of mine?
Bentonbag NOOOOOOOOOO
Thank you I've plenty to be going on with what with what's under the telly,
under the bed, on top of the wardrobe and in the loft.
Ms Exlibris Oooo, I love
a good sloppy joe, that would get my vote.
Mrs Quilt Changed my
mind - do the Herring, that'll make a hole in your silver yarn. It is for an Exhibition on The Fisher Lasses,
that moved around the ports gutting herring, at The Old Low Light.
Bentonbag I think the
Herring is probably going to be next - as a palette cleanser - something
entirely different and new. I hope they
don't mind if it's stuffed with old tights and scraps left over from mask
making.
Jay Mural Knit the herring! We will need pictures.
Drummerman Are you
thinking of taking up golf?
Mrs Leftfoot We could try that one
time. Then again, maybe not. Yawn.
Bentonbag Gosforth
Park Golf club used to do a bucket of balls thing where you could just thwack
them as far as you like. We could do
that. You never know though, we might
enjoy ruining a good walk. But I suspect
we'd really annoy the golfers (which makes it all the more
tempting). On the other hand it could be
a bit costly
Mrs Leftfoot There seemed to be a consensus here that it might be too dangerous and
risky. For you. With me hitting balls around.
