I haven't made it to the yarn along for a while but I have been knitting away.
I have done this fair isle hat for Roghan which I will share more of when I have done the mittens that go with it. It is from the book called Fair Isle basics and beyond.
I am also working on this jumper for Faith and it is very hard to photograph and show the cabling. It is from this pattern. I especially like the detachable sleeves.
.
Also I have been knitting a teeny tiny cardigan, see this post from a couple of days ago.
I just recieved my very first issue of living crafts magazine and it is such a lovely read, I think Faith has her eye on one of the lavender bunnies in this issue. I have also been reading 'how to talk so kids will listen and listen so kids will talk' it approaches parenting from a kind, trusting and respectful perspective. A really encouraging read for creating peace in your home.

That Fair Isle looks wonderful, its something I definitely need to learn to do! The cables look great!
ReplyDeleteOh those are both beautiful! And look incredibly difficult! I haven't done cables before. It is something that I hope to start at some point...and the colorway knitting...hmmm...not sure I could handle that. Maybe when my kids are a little older and I don't have to worry about setting my knitting down :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the cable :)
ReplyDeleteIn answer to your question on my blog (about the socks) - it is the Starflower pattern on ravelry ;)
Detachable sleeves! What a cool idea.
ReplyDeleteI love all the colors you're using here.
Oh I can't wait to see more of that hat. Those fish look great! Detachable sleeves--wow! I can't wait to see what it looks like all knitted up. Thanks for the link to the cardi and mouse--it is adorable!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely knitting! can't wait to see the finished hat, it's looking very cute so far.
ReplyDeleteYour knitting is beautiful!! Love the fish.
ReplyDeleteYour knitting is beautiful! The little fish on that hat are darling!

ReplyDeleteThat fair isle is just gorgeous - but that pullover! I just saved it to make for my daughter. It's lovely! xo
ReplyDeleteI love the fair isle!! (it's something that I have yet to try) And I love the subtle gray!
ReplyDeleteLook at your fair isle! So wonderful - I'd love to have a go at it but I know I wont have the patience...
ReplyDeleteI like the how to listen... books. I find them very useful.
Fair isle nicely done! Your cable work is coming out nicely too. Are you using key rings for stitch markers?
ReplyDeletewhat a talented knitter you are. I got a chance to look around a bit and you have a lovely family and a comforting way of looking at life. I hope to offer up a pattern for the slippers, Im just afraid it will be too confusing. Thanks for stopping by.
