Adventures of a hand knitter

Shoulder Shawl - Nearly Finished

I have done the shoulder shawl, although I had to do it a bit shorter than the pattern said as I wasn’t sure if I would have enough yarn to do it to the specified length.
I haven’t done the knitted-on border yet either. I did try, but I got all mixed up, so […]

Shoulder Shawl

I have started my first adult shawl!
I am knitting it in a 4 ply 100% Alpaca yarn in Denim, that I picked up at a charity shop for 50p.
I don’t know how much yarn there is on the cone, but I figured, as it is my first attempt, I might as well use the […]

Seduction Socks - Finished!

I managed to finish the “Seduction” Socks for the Interweave Sockalong
I really like how they turned out, but although I was knitting them for myself, and they do fit, my 8 year old daughter has decided that she wants them.

I am now about half way through the second sleeve. […]

Another Gents Aran Jumper

This is my latest FO.
It is a gents 42″ Aran Jumper.
I am hoping that I will be able to do some craft fairs this year, but I haven’t booked any yet as I don’t know if I will have either enough stock or transport to get me there.
My other half, David, has started his […]

Gents Aran Jumper

This is a 38″ Gents Aran Jumper. It took just under 800g of yarn to do.
Excuse the display, but I only have the one tailors dummy and it is female.
The jumper has patterns all over it. I don’t thing there is one bit that doesn’t have some sort of cable pattern […]
