I have been knitting, I have been so busy like most people these days, time just gets away so fast.
I have knit so many pairs of felted slippers and still have so much of the yarn still left. I have knit headbands, beanies, fingerless gloves for my grand daughter, both for everyday use and also in school colours for her to wear to school.
She loves the fingerless gloves, although she will wear them for the walk to school, but takes them off at the school gate. She is only in Kindergarten and the peer pressure of fitting in is very well alive.
I will have to get photos of my knitting here soon.
Bendigo Woollen Mills have brought back their lovely Alpaca yarn, only for a short time unfortunately, so today, I put in an order so I can have some in my ever growing stash. It seems to multiple faster than I can knit. Another reason my stash is growing is the fact that my most favourite local yarn store will be closing in September this year. Damn it. But they are wonderful women who I knit with at least 5 times a month so I will still get to hang out with them at KITGO (Knitting in the Great Outdoors) that I started, Wollongong Stitch N Bitch, Kiama Knitters Guild and every second Tuesday night which now will be at a new venue and not at their lovely shop C.R. & K Daisy Designs.
Daisy Designs has a sale on called "end of the row" sale. So I have been making the most of that.
But all good things must come to an end......and I now realise I have enough yarn to last more than my life time, so I will need to cut back. I will see how that goes.
