Now you would take view I would have come up with this thought a long time ago but no, I think I have had brain freeze. Any way it's done now and I'm pleased with the out come.Model is Annie)
Here is Annie's shawl I made for her, couldn't get a design I wanted to use, Oh there is a lot out there but hay I like to do things the hard way, and this is such an easy stitch anyone could have come up with it.
I have other things finished but no photo's. I know bad Dido I will remember next time ok.So on to the knitting on the needles, first the old mans cardy. yes I'm still working on it. long job longer story. but I have the body almost done.
ok now there is another shawl for Annie on the kneedles, this one is from the new knitpicks Chroma yarn in fingering weight and the colorway is lollipop. real pretty colors for a girl like my Annie and loose but there is just something I don't care about the yarn not sure what it is so I'm not going to say much, but something that will stop me from getting more. I did get another one in Prism/ fingering and one lollipop in the heaver weight but not sure if I will use them. we will see I don't like waste so they will get used some time I'm sure.
Ok now this next photo is of my new shawl by the lady Romi and it the bitter root shawl. the wind is my own dyed yarn it was one of them "what ever" moments. I had hardly finished dyeing other stuff and some dyes left over so I got the ball of wind and gave it the "what ever" treament and boy did it ever work, I love the colours. It looks all odd right now anyone that makes shawls knows that when they are on the needles they are not at their best it when they are blocked they come alive, we hope.
OK now this is not much to look at. It's the low to Zachs new sweater. I but only hold on so it's just the rib and I am about to set up the pattern "Honey comb and cables" sounds fun don't it?
Ok lets see thats about it I think, just one scene of some spinning just for the heck of it.
Oh and for the ones that wonder Yes the roll is even used My girl will use it when she is in the mode or I use it to ply sometimes but sorry my butt just won't sit still that long to use it frequently but every single spindle is used a LOT. did you acknowledge it is a powerful way to keep fit.
OK I think I have run out of photo's and time. so that's about it from me. Boy have I been a good little blogger laterly. No don't get your hopes up I will come of the wagon soon and allow to post. hay spring is on it's way that's the sentence I drive everyone in the house crazy with spring "to-do list" got to because by the time the summer gets here it's to darn hot to do anything.Well pick up your craft of option and get on with it and make fun, Life is to clear to put it off until you make time, find time your be glad you did.Keep smillingDido
