Well, as is the course of february, the resolutions have slipped, i've barely begun lent and i've already stuffed my face full of chocolate and biscuits> so apologies for the delayed post. I'll try and keep to my weekly schedule (and i really must do some french)
However, I'm pleased to say the owl jumper is finished and i love it. The colour didn't come out nearly as badly as i thought and actually in some of these photo's the colours and the hair perhaps give it a real 70's feel. The owls i think didn't turn out quite right, so they look like quite fat, really old wise owls - i kinda like it.
Next project is going to be a bamboo camisole i think...plus some more sewing at some point : )
I had a great weekend catching up with some old uni friends who i haven't seen for about 3 years. I like the fact that it didn't matter that we hadn't really been keeping in touch - we could just continue where we left off - some of them are quite different to the friends i have now, which was kind of refreshing - different conversations, different views - it was lots of fun so thank you vix for organising it.
oh and for ages i've been meaning to write about the places i want to visit....so far on the list:
Korea
Hong kong (again)
India
and see, i've forgotten so this is why i need to write them down...
Beautiful jumper! I am amazed by knitters! And it's in a great color for you, too.
ReplyDeleteYAY, Owls! I really want to knit this...
ReplyDeleteThanks Antoinette - i wasn't sure about the colour when i bought the wool (bargain though it was) but now i really like it!
ReplyDeleteIsobel - you have to knit this - it's really easy (especially if you don't knit the wrong way round like i do and get your cables the wrong way round)
