Peace Gloves

Here are the Peace Gloves knit in 6 colors of Knitpicks' Palette - you need one of the main color (white) and small amounts of the other five. I tried various means of embroidery but ended up with only a small amount on the picot cuff. The pattern is available in print and as a .PDF download HERE.
Next on the agenda is to see how many fun colorwork socks I can knit in my worsted weight purple wool yarn collection. Also, I have photographic evidence of Peaches misbehaving terribly.

Yarn

A big Thank you to my American friend 'Maggie' whom recently visited her old home of Stockholm and kindly brought me 10 ball of wool!! Yes 10 So my yarn stash has a good start to being rebuilt. :-)

This week I was mostly finishing!

liquorice all'sorts'
Here is a knit sample of the top/dress(tunic i guess as they seem to be really in)
I had been working on the week before my holiday. I have still to complete, so for me that's a week is a long project.
It's created using the kids hammer beads that I had brought from Ikea.
The last of my yarn an orange string type yarn and acyrlic black not colours I would have usually used, but they work. The top is knit and crochet as always a combination of stitch's and technique. The sleeve/straps are my favourite part, chain stitch with a run of random coloured beads. Time consuming to thread all the beads, but simple as they aren't so tiny.
