Where I have been.






Sorry for no posts. I took the girls to Indented Heads for a couple of days to stay with my Dad in a holiday house there. COLD! We wore all our socks to bed. Anyway, it was peaceful and it's always good to get away, makes you appreciate coming home. Now I'm home though, it's back into the swing of things. More dyeing and packaging to be done.This hat was knitted by my friend Nadine out of the Wintergreen / Winterwood colourway in the Angora rabbit. I is soooo soft. Nadine and I have decided we are now wool snobs. We turn our noses up at any yarn that isn't this soft.
Nadine has now opened her etsy shop after much nagging from me and is using the same model I use. The Blond is much nicer when posing for Nadine.

Bracelet Fun

This is the cutest owl needle felted by my friend Win. Bri wont part with it. So now, I'll have to do a trade with Win to keep the peace in the house. For a 'grownup nearly 16 young lady' she still has plenty of kid in her. I meant Bri of course, but well, if you knew Win....


Rae gave me a heap of old bracelets, so I have begun playing with them. These two I wrapped with my merino and felted. I'm pretty happy. I think I shall do more!



A new colour way yesterday before the freezing cold scared me out of the shed too. I think I'll call it Persian Carpet. Still enjoying the rabbit. If only I could knit to a pattern, I would make a hat, and how would socks be in angora? I'll have to stand on Uki to find out, just kidding.
