I have unraveled this a few times and think I will have to do it again. |
So armed with two balls of wool I start a beautiful lace beret, only to get to the crown shaping part to realise that the balls of wool I used last time had more metres or yardage (depends where you are from). I call trusted Michelle only to find out that she hasn't got the colour anymore as she had a sale and it has gone. In two days my project turned from happy knitted bliss to a mad panic to find somewhere else that sells it. I have to wait until Thursady oh Thursday is a long way away. It is also one way to figure out that I am new to knitting, the other is I didn't photocopy the page of the pattern that tells you how much wool to use.
Anyway I still enjoy watching the pattern reveal itself as I knit oh the joys.
Just found you via Brooklyn Tweed. Oh, that wool! Anyway, wanted to say what beautiful photos you have on your blog. Really clear and bright. And I love the pink scarf - I may have to make one for our next winter. Keep up the great blog.
ReplyDeleteI love Brooklyn Tweed, I just brought 3 more patterns from the site. Thank-you for your wonderful comments, photos have always been a passion I am saving for a new camera as this one is just a small one I keep in my handbag.
