Reintroduction!

Well, it's been a little while hasn't it?

Too long I think! I'm going to do my best to start blogging, as a record of my journey in knitting. Soon, I will do a post about the projects I have finished since I last posted. So, um, all of them? Any way.

I've got a few new tools I will be showing you too, most so far unused, including a set of the Large Hiya Hiya interchangeable needles. <3

Knitted Wedding Dress

I had hoped that my next post would be one of those fancy FO ones... but I'm too slow. The fancy FO post shall have to wait.



Isn't it stunning? I'm following a thread on Ravelry where there are discussions on the pattern, but the maker has chimed in and said that it's a pattern she's made herself and made up as she went along. I can barely even imagine the amount of work that has gone into this, but there's one thing I think we can all agree on... this took a lot more than the 300g of yarn that the Daily Mail claim it was made from ;)

An Introduction (Of Sorts)

Well, welcome to my blog!

I have been lurking around in a few online knititng circles since January perhaps, and have finally taken the leap into blogging! Please wish me luck.

Since January, despite very good intentions, I have not actually done very much knitting at all. I have completed exactly two scarves, begun another (maybe two? or three?), as well as a hat and a baby blanket. I already have procrastination well under my belt.

As a short introduction: I am 23 years old, in a perpetual career crisis, a long-term relationship with a lovely man who will wear my slightly wonky scarves. I have great aspirations, but these often get forgotten between naps and difficult shft patterns.
