more yarn

Look! It's just arrived. Well, not just because it's 10.34pm, but earlier today. More wonderful yarn. 10 balls of Debbie Bliss Merino Aran and 4 skeins of Rowan Chunky Tweed. Yipeeeeeeeeee. Like I need more yarn, but then again, you can never have too much yarn. Maybe not enough storage space but never too much yarn.

Here's a sneak preview of what I'm working on at the moment.

Can you guess what it is? Well I'll tell you. It's the 'One Skein Wonder'. I've seen so many wonderful versions of this garment that I thought I'd knit one for myself. It's great fun. I'm going to go back to work now (knitting of course), so I'll speak to you in a few days time, with more pictures of my progress.

I'm out of here.

welcome to knitting brings pure joy

The name of my blog says it all - Knitting Brings Pure Joy. Well, not just knitting but anything creative. This blog will be the home of all my creations.

By the way I'm Joy. It's a pleasure to meet you; when I read blogs by other knitters I feel that I know them personally. My prayer is that we will build a strong relationship and enjoy our craft (or shall I say crafts) together.

Creating brings such pleasure. Just as God made and created man in his own image (Genesis 1 v 26 - 27) and saw that it was good (Genesis 1 v 31); I pray that this blog will be filled with beautiful items that I will both make and create.

Hopefully tomorrow will the start of my visual journal with the first item on my long and every growing list of things to make and create.

Speak to you soon.

God Bless
Joy
