The weather has warmed up, the frogs are being very industrious in the garden pond and I've changed my thick jumper to my lovely Icelandic cardigan. I bought this chunky weight lopi yarn when Mr W and I visited about 19 years ago. It uses stranded or fair isle knitting technique to create the pattern.
Well Boris has spoken on the road map to reducing restrictions. I hope to put on some classes from April 12 but am waiting for the Vicars Cross United Reformed church to decide when they are opening up. The guidance is by no means clear. What ever happens I will let you know my plans as soon as I have some.
As you can see I'm busy knitting the sleeve of the cardigan for my friend. It includes 106 rows of k1 p1 rib. Now I'm onto the shaping so have to pay attention. I'm using stitch markers to help me through this bit.
I decided to change the colour of the collar so ordered some more yarn. While I was on Black Sheep Wools page I also ordered some more Summerlite 4 ply yarn so I can knit my self another Rowan top designed by Erica Knight.
Finally the seaside blanket I crocheted in January is now winging it's way to the newest member of our family, Charlie Woodcock. I did enjoy making this blanket especially using the Bo Peep WYS yarn.
