Ravelry

YES! I like to have this title above a post, so therefore I decided to use it once. I am in quite some time now and have to say it is a great resource. They have wonderful stuff on there. But one disadvantage of Ravelry is it kind of interferes with posting new projects here on this blog. I will try to make it up with this post.

The Wild West longies are done for a while now and on their way home. It was fun to make them.



The pink ruffles longies are made of Blue Faced Leicester. Very pink, very girly...

WIP: a pair of longies knit up with Pirates Treasure. I love how the colours are turning out.

And then I want to share a colourway that seems to be very popular at the moment. It could have something to do with the name: Wicked Night.

Thank you for your comment on my blog.
It is so nice to come across someone in the blogosphere that is so near geographically.
I love the embroidery you include in your knits.

Great job you did on the pants. The pink ruffles are the favorit of the girls here ;-).

Yarn contest

Image
Every once in a while I enter my name in a yarn contest at someones blog. Not that I ever did win something :-). But I like the idea and that is why I decided to do a small contest on this blog. Rules are simple, you have only to enter your name and tell me your favourite colourway on my Rainbow blog. That will help me to determine what colourway(s) I should dye more often. What you could win is Riverside , a skein of 75% Blue Faced Leicester/ 25% nylon sock yarn. Superwash treated, hard wearing and non felting. The yarn has a greatly soft feel and is hand painted. The skein is approximately 100 grams (3.5 oz) and 350 meter (383 yard). Fingering weight, recommended needle size is 2.5 mm. With the skein a set of 4 stitch markers, hand crafted by Dory and me. I will close the contest by next Monday, 15-10-2007 at 9 pm (UK time). The name of the winner will be randomly selected by my 3 year old daughter, who cannot read. You are all welcome to join this contest. To win the yarn will have...

Mini Swap

Het sneeuwt... alweer. Echt zo'n dag om binnen te blijven. Dan... verrassing! Postbode aan de deur met een pakketje voor mij! Natuurlijk meteen aan de slag gegaan om te neuzen wat er in zat, kan ook moeilijk anders met D. die dan weer erg nieuwsgierig is. Het begin was al veelbelovend: Een lief kaartje erbij van mijn geheime swapmaatje die schreef al vaker iets voor me samen te hebben gesteld en dat het niet mee was gevallen weer iets nieuws te verzinnen... Iets dat ik heel goed begrijp. Vervolgens zijn we gaan uitpakken, altijd handig met een paar extra handen erbij. En dit is het resultaat: Mooi!!! Hier de foto's van dichtbij om een en ander te verduidelijken. Een zeer persoonlijke rolcentimeter (is dit wel een Nederlands woord?), prachtig paars en voorzien van naam. Ook een omslag voor een opschrijfboekje en een pen, altijd handig. Helemaal zelf gevilt (denk ik) en op maat gemaakt. Prachtig werk, in het echt zoveel mooier dan op de foto's. Hier een opname van de ...

How Charity Wool became a Baby Cardigan

Image
A while ago I bought some terrific yarn in one of those st Luke's Hospice shops for a nice price. Soft enough, superwash, 20% lambs/ 80% merino. Only the colour, sage, was not to my liking. After the dyebath it looked like this Now, a few months later, I've knitted 3 skeins into this pretty cardigan, better known as Helena Really a pleasure to knit. Now it is packed and tomorrow it will be in the post to this precious baby girl.
