Yarn Pegs

I do like a bandwagon on occasion and after my recent Stylecraft stash enhancement i thought i would have a go at my own yarn pegs.
It also gave me a chance to use the impulse buy pyrography tool at long last!

Ann

Part two of the Spincushions CAL

Ann is  affable, nonchalant and neat.

All nine blocks made using a total of 147g of yarn compared to 160g used for PAM. 

Nice pattern to follow, i am getting more used to joining the round with a dc as opposed to a slip stitch :)

Sock Knitting with a difference

Around 8 years ago i bought a circular sock knitting machine from a knitting group friend who was downsizing her collection and today i finally managed to knit something on it!

Obviously i haven't been trying non stop for 8 years. In fact yesterday was the second day i had set it up and had a go in all that time. Yesterday i was very unsuccessful but today it finally worked!

I am over the moon to have it working.

Unfortunately it is an 84 needle cylinder so i won't be making socks that fit me on it :(

CrochetingAlong

So i decided to join the CAL designed and run by Shelley at Spincushions. I mean, it's called FRAN so how could i not!

The first block is called PAM, and here are my nine. Isn't she pretty!

There are some really lovely versions being made in multiple colours but i have decided to use my cream aran stash and do the whole thing in just one colour.

This time ;)

Moogly 2014 update

They have been simmering in a box under a chair for quite some time due to a complete lack of Crojo but i have been powering through for a couple of weeks and made a further five blocks which brings my total to 19 including the duplicates that were meant to be for a second blanket but that idea has flown out of the window!
So, now i am resizing them to all have 43 stitches on each side and to all be approximately 12" to make it easier to join them. I should end up with a 4x5 block blanket which will be at least 48"x60" but i expect i will be putting borders on it ;)
