mitered mozart

 

 

Well here it is.
I have finally finished my cardi. The pattern was from the knitter's magazine, spring 2000. The mitered mozart by Candace Eisner Strick. This is just a big mitered square with a picot edge.
I am really happy with the way it looks and with the way the colours work together.
Now I can start something new.

Knitting time

This is the wonderful mitred scarf that Idecided to turn into a vest. I am very happy with it. It is always good to try a new pattern and when it turns out so well I cant help but be happy.

These great felted clogs were made for hubbie. The pattern was quick and easy to make, now I want to make some for myself.

And so now I am onto my next pair of socks. It is the hedgerow pattern and I already love the way it looks. This is one of my hand dyed wools.

Long weekend

There is nothing like a long weekend for getting away to the beach. We walked along this beautiful beach looking for anything interesting. The beach was very clean, not even any shells to pick up. But after my little stroll we stopped at this lovely art gallery. The view is just to die for. The mosaic is done by the owners daughter.

And inside I came across this knitted lady. She even had her own knitted food and mouse. What a surprise find.

a few photos to share

Well take a clos look at this cute face as from tomorrow on he will be looking more like a black rat after he has his clip from the professional groomers. After all my home done cuts I thought he deserved a good job, and wont he look great.

Thiught I should add some more of my knits. This vest is made from some silk wool my mum gave me along with the pattern. I am not really all that happy with the way it has stretched. I have more yarn left but cant think of what to make with it.

This is the back of a vest I made for my hubbie. It was based on a Kaffe F design. I lined it with charcoal fabric. I really like it and it looks great on.

Another cardi. You can never have too many.
