Knitting – Looking for new Inspiration

cardiganmoss22

I’ve been working on the above cardigan since March and I’m struggling – I’m not even half way through yet. I decided I needed a new project to inspire me.

The latest Notebook magazine had three knitting projects – a shawl, blanket and hot-water bottle cover. I decided to try the hot-water bottle cover – it uses 14ply wool and 6mm circular needle, so I thought it would be a quick project.

Here is my progress so far …

I’m using a circular needle – I found out the hard way that the length of the needle needs to be about the same or less than the circumference of your project. I’m sure that 80cm 6mm circular needle will come in handy some day.

As it is cold and wet and my sewing room is freezing, I think a bit of knitting might happen.

It was time for a change. I’ve updated WordPress and changed the theme. The image in the banner is the fabric from my Mod 9 quit.

Applique T-Shirt – Baby Gift

A friend had a little boy. I made this T-Shirt …

Here is the back …

The designs are from Designs by JuJu and the T-Shirt is from Blank Clothing. The T-Shirt is lovely, it’s made from organic cotton. Unfortunately it is only available in little sizes (up to 2).

Now my other friends who are having babies know what to expect…
