Tired, working too much etc etc



The Garter Stitch Baby Cardigan is completed, took ages longer than I thought it would. It's is actually a plummy pink. Happy with it though , think it's cute looking like a little suit jacket. It was my first time doing pockets like this (knit the pocket inner, cast off same amount of stitches where required and next row knit along pocket inner where stitches were cast off) so simple and very neat (another wow that's so simple and cool knitting moment, like when I first did cable)

Just about finished another Meret. For my friend at work who gave it a couple of goes but gave up, didn't use proper stitch markers and got lost I think.

When that's finished starting on Kate Davis' "owls". The friend above whipped up it for her daughter in about a week in Moda Vera Cardellino in lovely greys. I found some in a purple and green my two favourite colours so how could I resist. They do have some lovely colourways in this yarn
