waiting to get started

trying, yet again, to clear out some of the accumulated bits of wool - far too many half balls lying around and there HAS to be something I can make from them. so, a selection of brown, beige, green, tan with tiny bits of red and blue to try and knit a slipover - striped or fair isle.

new from old

The changes to this old jumper are finished at last. The sleeves shortened and body lengthened with stripes from oddments of wool left over from other projects.
