working on the needles . . .

i am too groggy to make photographs
just now...
but there is some new knitting.

Yes, more Brick walls of pretty colours ...
but some fun projects - and
i've just started to swatch
for a pair of mittens.

My work-horse, 2 layer, knit mittens
have worn out. and it's
now the season

to have your mittens at-the-ready.

My friend in Ontario has already
reported snow on the ground.

project completion . . .

Here you go:
images of the completed blanket.






This project was
so much fun to work on.

I have never knit anything so large.
It did take me a Very long time, but it
was such an enjoyable project all the way
along.

it now is large enough to cover
a queen size bed.

That's a lot of knitting.

knit ....


At the start of
the month,
i showed you a

photo of a huge box of wool.
Here, i share with you the centre piece
of that project.

This is the start of a big blanket.
it's made of washable wool
and knit on 4.5mm needles.
