I am very proud of myself for knitting the above items. I have never knitted with two colours and was very pleased and surprised with the results. I knitted them for friends and I had positive feedback from them. Thank you.<br />

I made this for my niece. I actually finished it today. I am so pleased with it. It looks lovely in purple.

I started my weekend by doing my housework including ironing followed by going to lunch with a dear friend. That was great. We had a fabulous lunch, a good chat and a lot of laughing was had. It is so good to laugh. I came home and had a relaxing bath and chilled for the rest of the evening. Not a knitting needle and yarn in sight. :-) Today, I had a short lie in and decided I would have breakfast in bed and watch a movie: Think like a man. Great movie. I really didn't want to get out of bed but I finally did. I will be doing some knitting at some point today. Winter warmers are very popular at the moment. Beanie hats and cabled thick scarves have been very popular.<br />
<br />
Right! I am going to wrap up in my lovely knitted blanket (a wedding gift from friends) with a nice cup of green tea. xxBeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-47092349984970424282013-01-26T09:07:00.002+00:002013-01-26T09:07:28.191+00:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I knitted this scarf for a friend's sister who loves it. She said it is 'amazing'. I have to say I am very pleased with it. It is the first scarf that I have knitted without a pattern. This scarf is knitted up with an alpaca and wool mix yarn. It is soft and lovely on the skin. The colour is charcoal. It took about 12hours to knit.
I love knitting. I am still very passionate about this skill and it always pleases me when someone receives my knitted item is pleased and appreciates the time and effort that has gone into making it as well as the actual item.Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-22196319040366316962013-01-05T22:47:00.003+00:002013-01-05T22:47:44.431+00:00Happy New Year.

Of course, a shawl as well.<br /><br />Wish me luck.<br /><br />I would like to share my latest project that I completed just before the end of 2011.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJW35_CjaUVa41h7q3FPWejuge77yZS8nnPJiUAF8xc2xCaBi99U9In251F6wU5Q0FExvPdYBAtnnr0elUoFZve4ZQs_nWF1edANy4qpW24oS-QVYF7p9c5vooLxd5KG9H_pnMA8N6vW0y/s1600/Mrs+Christie%2527s+poncho.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 159px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJW35_CjaUVa41h7q3FPWejuge77yZS8nnPJiUAF8xc2xCaBi99U9In251F6wU5Q0FExvPdYBAtnnr0elUoFZve4ZQs_nWF1edANy4qpW24oS-QVYF7p9c5vooLxd5KG9H_pnMA8N6vW0y/s320/Mrs+Christie%2527s+poncho.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5693879753778557026" /></a><br /><br />Please feel free to leave a comment on my blog.<br /><br />Thank you.Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-50137466723373993482011-10-27T16:52:00.002+01:002011-10-27T16:58:17.102+01:00Cold and dark eveningsWell,it is that time of year. THE clocks will go back in a few days and Winter not be far behind. So out comes the gloves, hats and scarves. Must not forget to add cowls and snoods to the list of winter warmers. I spent some of day sorting through my stash of yarn and I have searched for patterns that I could uise with the stash I have available. <br /><br />At the moment, I am knitting a poncho. It is looking lovely. I will post a picture when I have finished it.<br /><br />Here is a picture of it so far.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZflABgGCbP3jiHeOlZJBPPAvUawiPHa8SwlBtIkrD0aJuPzUoj3X_aMRlCBXlIa2ukJDMrtChLREzftyBg0GvHhk-mk4Vp5Kh3jQJhYwh6oTGv7g8HQ8d7kLPARuH6RSaqQsU5SCEvrcu/s1600/poncho+2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 219px; height: 123px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZflABgGCbP3jiHeOlZJBPPAvUawiPHa8SwlBtIkrD0aJuPzUoj3X_aMRlCBXlIa2ukJDMrtChLREzftyBg0GvHhk-mk4Vp5Kh3jQJhYwh6oTGv7g8HQ8d7kLPARuH6RSaqQsU5SCEvrcu/s320/poncho+2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5668201809210966450" /></a>Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-26562059673341925892011-10-10T19:52:00.001+01:002011-10-10T20:06:14.071+01:00Latest Projects<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBqjWpgbyNlu84_0CF6fR026sO81ubiLnTMjnCLUpYrTlCP5SKjHvMaIncqY3GO7LWE2ypanxVTdB4Wl4Oue2ykS4junB7gt_8Cn_6hDlKaS_jmIVzaBxDtkqWU6A9vqtRKKWiGdiB9Bgt/s1600/Cream+Birth+Day+Baby+Blanket.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBqjWpgbyNlu84_0CF6fR026sO81ubiLnTMjnCLUpYrTlCP5SKjHvMaIncqY3GO7LWE2ypanxVTdB4Wl4Oue2ykS4junB7gt_8Cn_6hDlKaS_jmIVzaBxDtkqWU6A9vqtRKKWiGdiB9Bgt/s320/Cream+Birth+Day+Baby+Blanket.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5661939064360888690" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGxBpLXe3oaUcW051qIz9KNsGPVtm9C-HRFjCpgs6QflAnp0YaJ4At9AQc5V-wPUB895BpwhOootvEO_LhoKL0csI4Mo75xWEkiGKNM-uKepAe0qH-s6xDDJ1MIWOxFQV80b3PHWL8LGkm/s1600/Heather%2527s+Hat+2.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGxBpLXe3oaUcW051qIz9KNsGPVtm9C-HRFjCpgs6QflAnp0YaJ4At9AQc5V-wPUB895BpwhOootvEO_LhoKL0csI4Mo75xWEkiGKNM-uKepAe0qH-s6xDDJ1MIWOxFQV80b3PHWL8LGkm/s320/Heather%2527s+Hat+2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5661939060469277186" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilee3mHmpjguza0HSi0Bs6K338xUYhvgcCussBOnz8X30hyphenhyphenj6PFgzU7GoFETYle9CSMtfbPCCPIgCiFWG_GRJqPZzdx9z9fjzdPUIYXMRQhrerdTZYf5JvCRhOtaj4OoQvxml0DAHGdr_5/s1600/Red+diagonal+lace+scarf.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilee3mHmpjguza0HSi0Bs6K338xUYhvgcCussBOnz8X30hyphenhyphenj6PFgzU7GoFETYle9CSMtfbPCCPIgCiFWG_GRJqPZzdx9z9fjzdPUIYXMRQhrerdTZYf5JvCRhOtaj4OoQvxml0DAHGdr_5/s320/Red+diagonal+lace+scarf.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5661939068713167314" /></a>Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-53541477609638955052011-09-03T19:27:00.002+01:002011-09-03T19:32:25.509+01:00Fabilicious Scarf<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiEPadTDYVxoYNTZm9tmD4dt_6VLPPgO3m5Trx5Pq3rgoM75xube33KapvDzo0DvvSwzOwAnb9yyUkPQZgUrmyMNeK1sW764v8HtvvEgMXy9_U6lJ0UApRiTRzaERoc4r7A_QU4uDri9lD/s1600/Fab+big+scarf.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiEPadTDYVxoYNTZm9tmD4dt_6VLPPgO3m5Trx5Pq3rgoM75xube33KapvDzo0DvvSwzOwAnb9yyUkPQZgUrmyMNeK1sW764v8HtvvEgMXy9_U6lJ0UApRiTRzaERoc4r7A_QU4uDri9lD/s320/Fab+big+scarf.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5648202143478064674" /></a>

<br />It has been a long time since I have visited my blog but I am back. I have been busy knitting a ladybird and an afghan. Will post a picture of the afghan later.
<br />
<br />Let me know what you think of the ladybird.

Knitting was slow for me in January due to not having time to knit. Work and visiting friends took priority. I knitted a few little things. I made a small toy dog for a knitting swap I was involved in and a balaclava. Yes, I made another one. The first I made back in Decemeber was in a burgundy colour. The second one was knitted with a tweedy like DK yarn. It was nice to knit with but slow. It took longer to knit this one than the first one.It looks lovely though. Will post a picture soon.Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-80347349094454666402010-12-30T15:01:00.003+00:002010-12-30T15:04:35.038+00:00Winter HolidayWell! It has been a very cold December which has been good for my knitting needles in the first half of the month. I have been knitting hats, scarves, mittens, gloves and neck ponchoes. Then I got a very bad cold that lasted ten days. Not nice when you are stuck indoors and BORED. I am feeling much better now and looking forward to new year.<br /><br />I wish you all the best for coming year.Beehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12867516440795115381noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105803984722021068.post-7253585116948658292010-12-19T16:59:00.000+00:002010-12-19T17:03:36.255+00:00A winter warmer for Sue.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTh1P-9U8ppzLMYFF6RJflET5qR80oygwl1LxCLekQ86TlNKEwKQMK1R8R1d4iDW6C564V4X2H0c4WxhWh5OD8yDoP782LpppcSa51XYX9ckbNxF6kxOGgVDMILR39sPwtCkIQ-dQAxzKh/s1600/Balaclava.jpg"><img style="display:block;
