i caved in

Ouch! I've caved in and purchased more yarn. Yet another addition to my stash, this time it's a skein of Manos del Uruguay silk blend in colour 6828. It's absolutely lovely. I'm going to cast on tomorrow morining once I find a pattern on Ravelry tonight.

I first spotted the yarn last week at my LYS - Iknit, when I attended one of their knitting nights. I was able to resist it that night but not for long. I wander if I need a rehab for my yarn purchasing!!

Anyway I'm off to visit the Ravelry site; this will be the second time for today.

See ya.

the progress so far

Just some more pictures for you to see. Have you guessed what it is yet?





See you soon.

look at what i've started

I've just started another beautiful creation with the help of one of my many knitting machines. Can you guess what it is???????? I'm going to leave you guessing.

Come back in a few days to see if you were right when some more pictures will have been posted.

Keep Guessing. God Bless.

yet another one

Hi, how you doing? Pray well.

You're not dreaming; it's another Slouchy Copy Cat Hat. It's like an obsession, well I like the stitch pattern. The stitch definition in Cascade 220 is just fantastic and it grows so quickly. Let's see if this is the last one.

So far the pink one is my favourite, but this one has been my quickest knit; just one day.

Pattern: The Slouchy Copy Cat Hat

Material: 1 skein of Cascade 220 100% Peruvian Wool

Colour: Purple shade 7803

Needles: 4mm and 5mm Addi Circulars

Modification: Casted on extra 8 sts.

Started: 18th January 2008

Completed: 18th January 2008

It you haven't knitted one yet, give it a try. Enjoy.

God Bless.

off the needles

Just a few pictures of my latest creation - The Anthropologie-Inspired Capelet.

Here it is again off the needles and now on with the hook. I'm going to crochet around the neck, front and sleeves.

See ya soon. God Bless.

i'm still here

Sorry for not posting in a while, because of the weather here I've been unable to take decent pictures and I don't like posting without a picture. Not that I haven't posted without a picture before, but my preference is to have a picture with each post.

Anyway I managed to take this shot. A close-up of my first knit of 2008 - another Utopia.


This was knitted in a couple of days, talk about instead gratification. Well almost. For more information on this project have a look at the one I knitted in December as the only difference being the colour.

Presently I have a few projects on my needles, Santi's Tomtem Jacket, my Harwood Coat, The Trinity Stitch Beret and a Capelet, that just needs it's edges crochet and some embellishments.

One of my prayers this year is to produce as many beautiful creations as possible. I wander how many that means?????????????

I'll talk to you soon. God Bless.

happy new year

I wish you all a very Happy New Year. I pray that this year will be your year of victory.

My 2008 Knitting Goal ...................... to knit 1 hand knitted garment per month.

God Bless.
