2 Socks on 2 Circulars Present and Enjoin

A few sock knitting patterns










Miless and Miless of Seed Stitchh

Two sleeves and most of the socialistic frontmost...





Now this may not sensing like alot of needlecraft, but I tranquilize you it is. Its done all in humor fasten on filler 4 needles. But of row you shift to size three's afterwards on in the decoration! I've found it rattling clip consuming as intimately as a bit uninteresting. But now that I can forgiving of see the artefact head spatiality I've plant renewed percentage. I really truly impoverishment to get it done fixed. Im wearied of participant fasten! Also I desperately impoverishment to see hurt myself with knitwork but I do intimately with deadlines.


Stuff, "welllllll it is nearly christmas"


 Hectic

I certainly manage to busy myself with stuff...........

We all love a snow day, oh yes the weather has followed me, when I left stockholm I had thought I had seen the last of the white stuff for a while..........

WRONG

And Luckily I kept my coat and Primark has affordable long Johns.


Had this book for a while, so this snow day I had to take a break from the bulk knitting/crochet and read a little.  My hand (intensively crocheting) it's playing up,  achy I hope it's just the cold;-)

I'mnot that old! that the arthritis kicked in, it's just over doing the craft and the cold combined.


 I love a Martini , so that's a winning title, tis written by a super model and I'm  more wash and go;-) but I wouldn't judge a book by the cover as they say.

But it dose have some relevant stuff..........  Stitch N bitch

Funny part about the regulars sat in there seats (oh so true)



  Rasmus



 Be a doll.......

Very relevant to me, a little about Blythe.  She is a doll that's not so well known, unless like me you've researched or brought the dolls that you never had as a child.

My excuse;-)



  Below"this is me"

Relevant again because as I type I'm sitting through a Twilight marathon and everyone needs an 
 Edward.........
Jacob.........
Carlisle........

My skirt collection is expanding and a few of the graffiti banners are now becoming skirts.





 A little mess up as this is actually the inlay from the book,(above review) it  reminded me of knitting, knitted stitches.  So I figured it earned a place to on my knit blog.




Quick and easy Baby Blankets.

  A little crocheted baby car seat blanket, ready for my new nephew or niece that's due after xmas.

Just add crochet


Hat hats hats........ Rasmus and Monet (who had literally just woken up) try to model my knit wear, Rasmus did his best to be human so he didn't miss out on the photo opportunity.



38 34 38 a little too burlesque?

Modelling my Edward top, even actually wearing a bra.

Not very model like but life like, trying to make it look like a real ladies a little bit of a chore.......this weekend job to give my mannequin a real figure.



Graffiti for skirts!

Vivacious has become a graffiti skirt,(prototype) this is the Dyslexic on and basically I decided that on a round who could tell what it actually said..........


So far so good, below £1.65 charity shop buy to complete this task huge acrylic




TOOOOOOOOOO MUCH ON



This mess applies to my life as well as my projects, I think that I actually need a time out.

Uni work OCA

I really must get on with some uni work this is going to be the longest ever chapter, I just can not come to terms with just how awful hand dying is if !!! if you just have no interest, I just want the end product and I totally respect the work that goes into the love of dying
I JUST DON'T LIKE IT!



Rhubarb and custard

Gets a waist band of huge proportion




Just how many projects should one have on the go at once, it occurred to me lately that I have not finished any thing in a while..........

And that the reason for this is I just keep moving on.....it's a little knit crazy.

Rich is very patient with the fact that a lot of the time there's no seats as I seem to spread out like ivy, I'm every where.

I need to get a grip, we need to fit a tree in here and I can't
bring back out my knitted one, can I ?

It's just to much even by my standards (To much yarn,never?)



Simply threading the elastic through, with a darning needle.




Lamp Shade cover,

Clock cover,

Desk lamp cover,

Just add a little crochet.



These are a few on my favourite things...............

How to below

Karin's flower, my bag and a charity shop Sweep.


Karins flower and this weeks school knit cafe made my bag.........

I was attempting to make three little of my own flower pattern, when karin made this Ravelry version and it blew mine away.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ravelry

So here is a collaborative bag made by two knit cafe members. Lady Gaga, is in the background and still unfortunately on hold.



My own stitch and in three colours, the simple rectangle bag envelop method.

Purple

Coral pink

White, acrylic.



I added a piece of card to keep the shape, maybe a fabric snifter could be used here that's something new to look into.



My charity shop sweep.



20kr's (£2)

Charity and thrift shops are a real gem for the avid knitter/crocheter. Pick a regulars one, so you know where to look, ask if you can not find.

(Easy, cheap and available!)

Mine, I am pretty impressed with, very rarely they have noting, from yarn to needles and hooks, always something. But today an over load.




40kr (£4)




The bargain of the day...........

80kr (£8) at 10 balls of rag.

I brought two lots of this, as I felt that new and packaged
was a complete bargain.;-)




All the blues...........


Yet more doily's , yes I can never have enough..........



10krs


Pan stand and a doily.

Art to follow;-)


Knitting Nanna's and getting older........

Knitted By Nanny

Shreddie's a cereal advert, I saw this when I was in England and have only just gotten to research it........Ding dong (very funny)

http://www.tellyads.com/show_movie_miss.php?filename=TA3698





This is a tiny picture/all I could find of a knitted Shreddie.(look close)

And the funny thing was that as I child I used to think how do they knit them together?

As Shreddie's if you do not know are delicate little grids of cereal.

NOW I KNOW..........Knitted



Shawl number two.


Naughty dogs and boardrooms.....Boredom (spell check)

I'm just not concentrating on life.......or my big projects or even my Uni work..........

Why?

It could be that.........

My friend is in Labour as I type and that's really made my concentration be completely off. (Gemma;-)

Another factor

My birthday was this week............actually on the due date of above baby that simply did not want to share my day!

So it's that time again change my 36 to 37!
(three years to 40!)

Oj oj oj

Or the fact that I leave the country by the end of June.

So when I finished easy odds and ends shawl number two and went to find my camera to document that fact. Two minutes I left the room, enough time for Rasmus to climb on the sofa (a place that he is not really aloud;(bossy Rich) and curl up and comfortably fall asleep.

Now this made me laugh, how cute he really appreciates my work;-).



Stitches up close.

And again as for shawl one, I have made this shawl using six or so strands. All different shapes and sizes of yarns and on a 16mm hook.

Easy crochets it really is so fast to complete.



My favourite card.

A Knitted Happy Birthday, reminded me of South Africa.

I just loved it, thanks Carmen.



Words of wisdom, or should I say pearls/purls of wisdom.


This weeks Metro

It's Bjork
in yet another madly crocheted creation?

I have know idea who it has been created by.................
I'll get to that this week, I just wanted to share it.



It was my birthday so I was aloud a little yarn splash.
(its only acrylic no bank breaker)


Funny thing the bright look like I was inspired by Bjork. But actually I brought the wool the day before the metro (Strange)

I figured whist my brains mush, just keep it simple. Marie Antoinette and lady Ga-ga on hold.

Make some basic......

Not a lot of thinking........

Or brain matter required..........


BAGS

The B'S


Burgundy based and the Bright's.
