Month: December 2009

Earlier in the year I said I was going to put together my own personal sock along once the Get Knitted Sock Club had come to an end. Well phase 1 is called Kaffe. Yes I am knitting up all my Kaffe Fassett sock yarn during 2010. I have enough for 7 pairs of socks. If only I could knit a pair a week.

First up we have

It seems hard to believe that we are far approaching 2010 and what a year 2009 has been! Anyway I finished something Debbie Abrahams Mystery Blanket 2008!  

My friend Liz sent me a photo of hers – very different but very beautiful.

 The name for this bkanket was  Arabian Nights. I wonder what the theme for 2010 will be, rumour has it blue/green, wool cotton and aquatic. 

Best Wishes for a successful 2010.

The lovely Jane Ellison got back to me and I have been able to finish the fronts of Pucara.

The back is also growing

I am looking forward to wearing this one. I think it will look great with a smart pair of trousers for the office or equally great with a smart pair of jeans for a more relaxed wear!

Sock number 2 is doing well also thanks to a couple of coffees care of

I also have a little project on the go at the moment. My friend Emma had a baby girl, Cerys, a couple of months ago. I wanted to knit Cerys a little cardigan so set about looking through my Debbie collection of books and decided upon this.

The back and 2 fronts are finished leaving 2 sleeves and I have even done half of one of those.

Happy Knitting

I hope to get the second one of this pair finished by the end of the year!

I have just looked in my draw of knitted socks this year – there are only 6 pairs. So what exactly have I knitted this year? I am not so sure it is a great deal!

2009 has been a bit of a roller coaster in more ways than one so 2010 can only be better. Let’s hope it is filled iwth knitterly fun!

Happy Knitting

Almost ready to wear just in time for party season.

I have some velvet ribbon to make the ties. I must admit it does look tiny but it is a fit I am pleased with and actually feels wam so shouldbe snug on a cold winters evening!
