Time Flies
Have just realised how long it is since I last blogged. It is a glorious autumn sunny day makes a change after all the rain. We thought the raspberries on the allotment had finished but a couple of days of sun and they are off again, long may it last!
Although there hasn’t been much blogging I have done some knitting. Finished the Peter Port Hoodie ( a Ravelry pattern ) and after a few initial difficulties am really pleased with the finished result. I used the Debbie Bliss luxury tweed and it is really soft. Jessie also seems to have done quite well as she has grown a lot. will have to get some pictures. The Sirdar Baby Bamboo knitted up really nicely it has a slight sheen and the slipover in stripes worked really well.
Now I am knitting the Solar fingerless gloves from the RYC Classic Accessorise book. I knitted some of these for christmas presents last year and then the pair I had knitted for myself got taken as well. So these are mine!
The new shop is a lovely place to work and it has great when people bring in their knitting to show us and stay a while to sit and knit. We have also been quite a lot busier so that may explain the long time gap between blogs!
