My new necker and experimenting with undulating rolls and restraining channels and not knitting short rows to get the effect, it is alot easier this new way.
The yarn is a cone yarn from Texers a boucle acrylic twist which holds the design very well ,did sample this up in merino and it just does not look good ,the trilby on my glass smodel is anew felt design soon to be released.
Mia and summers end –maybe not if you knit this hat! –just love the fabulous job that the team at http://www.knitonthenet.com have done with my design –go have a look at all the other fabulous knits over there.Well back from France and the design book is full now for next falls designs so heres to all the swatching I need to do,will miss the sun and the lovely people I met.Seeing my sister for a few days without being ic of little folk was great and nice to reconnect
after all the childrearing years.Our husbands had a good time with their own brand of humour –not lost on us really. We ate some lovely food and drank some very good wines, La Caminade http://www.lacaminade.com where I stayed was just perfect and Joelle and Christian both perfect hosts .
I cannot believe that time has gone so fast and also that I have not beeen very good about keeping up to date with my blogging.Life since February has been manic and also had some ill health to cope with so all good excuses but no excuse really –it is after all just a few minutes per day.there.This time next week will be in Sweden and looking forward to that .We are promised a long hot summer but I promise to keep blogging.One thing at the moment keeping me happy, is at last we have Greys Anatomy back with us,it is a good show and I have done my grey knitting as I have watched . Enjoy the rest of spring new mags should be put soon tempting us with more lovely yarns and new patterns.Last but not least, spent the Easter week getting to grips with my new spinning wheel ,she is a beauty ,and spent 2-3 days happily spinning lots of sample pieces from her,I think she is going to be a ‘Prudence’.Talk soon ,keep knitting and thankyou for all the lovely emails you keep sending
