Next Project
@ –
I have started another jumper. This time it is for a friends son. They have given us so many baby cloths I decided as a thankyou to knit a jumper for their 18 month old son. I know its summer, but I am making it large for the winter. It is made from chunky wool so the back was finished in one evening.

Current project is nearing completion. I try to do a bit every night. It is a shoulder wrap in a chunky blue mahair style wool. The pattern is from a Women Weekly knitting special from about 2 years ago. It knits up really quickly as you use big needles. OO I think. You don't really need to do a swatch for this as you can just knit until it is the right lenght for you.
I'll hopefully put a picture up when it is finished.

My parents had their 40th wedding anniversary in 2003 and I knitted a lace shawl for my mum. I knitted it in black pure wool from Shetland Isles wool company.
It was the first lace garment I had ever knitted and was very impressed. Finding something to block it on was a problem but we had some spare steryfoam that was big enough to block all in one go.
The pattern was from a book of lace patterns I bought and is listed in my books section at

I have just finished knitting, still to get the buttons, a little hooded jumper for my 7 month old. I puposely made it in a bigger size and sure enough he will have to grow before he will fit into it.
The pattern was from a Womens weekly special from about 2 years ago. Very easy to knit as mostly stocking stitch.
