ok, so i finally figured out how to upload photos, my ipad is thick ---it cannot do it (Not me!)

Below is what am working on at the moment, own design of a fitted sweater/cardigan (sorry cannot get my head around the difference!)

Check out the fitting, i love it. I love knitting this sweater because first it is a top down knit, so no seams at all and second at this stage am only about to finish  the second ball of 100g 60% wool. The wool isnt soft or smooth but the knitting is flying so i will not complain too much.

Hey forgot to includ my etch link http://www.etsy.com/shop/trendyjonez?ref=seller_info

of wool washing and hand dying ....plus socks!

This is what i did on the Easter weekend....a pair of socks and washed and dyed some wool.

The wool was too much for what i intended for so i have put some on etsy and some on ebay.......@trendyjonez in either of them if interested.

(time delay - perfect excuse i didnt know how to load them photos)

1st attempt to get the stitch design

second attempt

i gave up at this point, the socks are purple with a sparkly glittering thing in them! very girly which isnt my style but they are soft.

sapphire blue - am in love with this blue

hand washed wool

Day one!

Ok, I am a knitter and I spin wool occasionally to give my wrist a break. I must admit that am now hooked to spinning wool although I haven't always been a fun of spinning on my home made drop spindle. I have knitted for just over 3 years now, when I started I thought I would soon be bored of it but it has now become a way of my evenings. I love reading other people's blog, so I thought I could start writing one as well. At the moment am knitting a pair of blue green purplish socks with handspun yarn for my husband. Don't know how o upload photo yet, but will learn how to in the next few days!
