clapotis


The celebrated clapotis, finally knitted by me. I could be the only person on earth who has not knitted this before now. It is huge and shiny and I love it. I can't wait to go somewhere so I can wear it. I don't feel very French though. Six balls of Zhivago colour 4469. I knitted this in about four days, but they have been a rough four days. My wrists are killing me.

curly whirly scarf


This scarf was really simple but quite tedious. I cast on about 200 stitches and knitted a couple of rows, then increased into every stitch and knitted a couple of rows, then repeated it again, and then cast off. I like it very much but it is a bit scratchy. It looks cool with my denim jacket and I received many compliments.

This was a very quick knit with just about 50g of black Cleckheaton country. I will wear it . . . one day. Curse my loose knitting. I finished it in about three hours.

mother's day socks


Knitted with 100% merino that I won in Katt's competition. These were lovely to knit, I really enjoy watching patterns emerge even if I often do not like what the finished product looks like with variegation over large items. Socks are perfect! Mother loved them! They are a simple 3x1 rib, top down sock of my own design.
