The evenings are dark and dreary and I have been feeling a little bored. All I seem to want to do after the dinner dishes are done is tuck up in my warm bed and relax. I decided that I should dig out some old 'therapy knitting' that I had started on a very long 8 hour train ride last year. I LOVE yarn and texture and colour. This morning I woke up in the middle of a dream that I was in the most wonderful wool shop. I am hoping this is a premonition!!! I was very disappointed last week when I went to a new wool shop to look for some inspiration and was met with a very unhelpful sales lady. I decided their shop was not worthy of my hard earned money and left! I have been investing in bamboo needles for the last few projects and enjoy them very much. Does anyone else use bamboo?
Anyway, I am knitting felted mitts. I have one pair knitted and slightly felted and another pair knitted and not felted at all. Now I have left over wool so I am knitting a scarf, just to use it up. It will probably be to scratchy for me to wear so I will no doubt give it away.
Hmm... I'd like something knitted in that wool :-)
