I am finding it tiring, I have been knitting chunky knits with big needles, now I am using double knit with 4mm needles, it is growing oh so slowly!
I am off to blog hop for a few minutes before knuckling down with the knitting again.

knitting on a Wednesday
I cast on a new knitting pattern the other evening, Stephanie has requested a jumper for school, rather than the cardigans she usually wears.

this is 2 evenings of work so far! You can't see the pattern as the yarn is so dark. Hopefully as it grows you will see the pattern more, it makes a heart pattern across the jumper as you knit. The most tricky knit I have attempted, so hopefully mine will have the intended heart pattern! LOL

My thoughts exactly, it will be worth it but seems so slow.
DeleteI had an enquiry via my childminder after the last school cardigan I knitted Stephanie if I could make them for other people. I said how long it takes me and the lady was surprised, se thought it would take a week not several!
