Catching Speed

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

So, I’ve now got a total of 5 projects cast on (pictures on the right), and I can’t seem to slow down! On top of knitting, I am working away on designs, wishing intensely that I knew how to tech ed (poor Ash is having to translate my babble into real, actual patterns)!

My mum told me yesterday how she misses knitting, so I might convert her back to the fold over Christmas, when she’ll have a whole week of RnR at our place (which is now quickly filling up with wool and needles…)

Anything else? Not really, just trying to implement some form of regime in my life to successfully accommodate all the madness.

Mr Darcy!

Watching Emma on BBC, I noticed Mr Woodhouse was wearing a grey knitted scarf – I loved it so much I’ve decided to recreate the pattern, and upload it on Ravelry… It seems to be a simple but gorgeous mix of moss and garter stitch. Once I get my needles in the post (hopefully tomorrow!), I’ll cast on and see if it uses aran or a chunkier yarn (I’ve still got some Robin Super Chunky frogged from my old jumper project), here are pictures of the original…
