So life is now my hell hole as i have caught a horrid cold, god knows where from, Its a migraine, sinus cold. my head feels like it’s in meltdown mode lol!!. But i won’t let it stop me yet.

I’ve just put up my new free mitten pattern on ravelry, i was supposed to be having it in yarn forward but they told me they liked it but not if they where going to use it so, i got fed up of waiting and have released it anyway. Its a nice simple pattern using noro kueryon sock yarn and cygnet wool rich 4 ply, it’s a nice pattern to use up left overs.  So go check it out if you don’t have ravelry don’t worry i shall be posting it in my patterns page soon enough!

Other good news is i didn’t let my mishap with my new sock pattern get me down i altered the size and they now fit and i’ve caught up to where i was so they should be done soon hopefully *crossed fingers*.

And i bought more new yarn for my patterns for my book, Some orkney st magnus dk 50% wool 50% angora, king cole baby alpaca, wensleydale longwool and some cygnet 4ply yarns. Just to get me started i also purchased some 3.75mm 40cm knitpro circs for my mitten knitting and i love them. The est of my yarn choices are gonna be from online stores but these i purchased from baa ram ewe in headingley.

I hope you all cross your fingers and wish my cold away xx

Thats Right i have photo’s of my newly started shawl, i knew you wouldn’t forget so here goes

And thats all your getting for the minute lol!!

The pattern is working wonderfully and i spent ages at work today doing it, it’s getting quite big now. I’ve planned to watch A bugs life while doing some more.

I’m Rather annoyed i didn’t get to go to Baa ram ewe‘s knit night tonight as i planned i ended up having to cover at work :( , But next i’m going no matter what.

I’ve also started some socks with my purchased opal sock yarn from baa ram ewe’s and they’re looking rather carzy and eye boggling

Off now for a shower, dinner and some bugs life with knitting

Cu soon peeps

I just made an order of wool from kemps woolshop.

patons washed haze DK, colour – misty blue, 3 balls

Patons washed haze DK, colour- coral , 3 balls

Wendy emu superwash DK, colour – kestrel, 3 balls

I truely can’t wait to start knitting them up into something fantastic.

I also this evening started my Simple yet effective shawl.

This pattern is great and my new skein of Noro Kueryon sock yarn is looking amazing as this shawl, the colour changes work well with this simple yet effective design. It cost $3.50 and is well worth it. I think i’ll be carrying this project for a few days. I’ll post some lush pictures tomorrow for you to see the progress i ownly started it this afternoon so don’t expect it to be finished lol!! i’m not that fast yet lol!!!

I also bought a sew it kit from the charity shop for £2.25 and it’s by amy butler with sewing projects which are cute. it’s a reason to get the sewning machine out :)

Cu tomorrow peeps x
