Rico Creative Melange jumper. I sewed it up knit side outwards, because purl side outwards just looks wrong to me. Sleeves are a bit long but it's very cosy and smooshy and the neck is ok too despite originally looking a bit big.
...and a matching hat for the charity bag, supposed to be a child's size but it does fit me. Well, I had a ball left over so just made this up. Came out a bit pointy! :)
And in progress...
Strawberry (or more likely Blueberry) Shortcake in progress. Faltered at the weekend 'cause I'd miscounted, this is made in sideways blo-dcs. Artesano merino DK - very nice to work with!
Whilst I was dithering over the "Shortcake" top, I also cast this on...
Baby v neck cardi from the Metbury Baby book. Some assembly still required!
Child's jumper in blue chenille. Needs two more garter st bands adding and then sewing up.
Realised yesterday that I do probably have a 5.5 tunisian hook - I got the Knitpick Pro set - but because it's upstairs somewhere I forget I've got them.
Have also found a likely candidate yarn for the canopy cardigan, but need to clear some projects first which might cool my ardour. Also, the yarn in question will need dyeing. I'm thinking of a pale blue at the moment, as I've had a bit of a grey/white streak lately. We shall see!
On training for two days because I am taking on more responsibilities at work. The training centre is purpose-built and is like a fancy hotel - hot n' cold buffet, dorm rooms. Very fancy! Glad I'm not paying for it...
