I have nearly finished Charm's second sleeve. What I have to do next is pick up stitches for the front bands and the collar.
Like with every project nearing its end, my mind starts wandering towards new horizons. I know I have to pick up Fontaine from its hibernation (and I will!...), but Kim Hargreaves new book "Breeze" is coming out in the shop at the beginning of April. It will arrive just when a pair of knitting needles becomes free. What a coincidence!...
On the news front, I have just signed up for a City & Guilds Hand knit textiles course. I am very excited about this. It is like going back to school for fun. Hopefully, this course will help me learn about designing and techniques I don't know about. Can't wait to start...
Next post, I hope very much to be able to show you Charm completed and maybe something new on the needles, unless I choose to be wise and pick up my UFO's...
Charm look so Spring-y and I love the colour and the pattern detail. How exciting to be doing a course!! Good luck, I hope there is not too much homework.

It's been awhile since I've been here to visit your wonderful knitting blog. I've snagged your wonderful "victorian knitted bag" pattern. Can't wait to try it with my own little spin. I'll be sure to send you a pic via your email address for a "show & tell".
Nice catching up on your posts!!

Hi,
I just came across your blogs and I was wondering how you made the felted ballet slippers for your darling daughter. I want to make one for my daughter's birthday.
Hope you can give me some advice:)
