I think, if I started saving up now, I might be able to go in five years’ time.

Goodies

These are the carders that came the other day, and two nostepinnes (nostepinde) from the same parcel: 1 for me and 1 for Gill.

carders

I am trying the carders out this afternoon. This package came on Saturday, having been ordered earlier last week on eBay from UK-collect. I am happy with this seller and will most likely use them again.

No doubt the spinning ladies of Sanday will have much hilarity tomorrow morning as we attempt to wind our birds’ nests!

DESIGN YOUR OWN SWEATER

DESIGN YOUR OWN SWEATER

Very useful link.

I used to have a book that had basic designs, with neck/sleeve variations etc, and a contained encyclopaedia of knit and colour patterns to ring the changes with. I lost it in The Great Divorce Débacle. Wish I could find a new copy. It really is a better/cheaper way to knit. Anyway - I’ll start with Colin’s instructions.

The Scotsman - Why Granny’s knitting adds up to a complex mathematical equation

The Scotsman - Why Granny’s knitting adds up to a complex mathematical equation

A rather interesting article in itself but - oh, how times change. Written just 4 years ago, but nobody today would speak of knitting as a lost “granny skill.” Knitting has become trendy in a very short space of time. This is kind of good - but also very bad. The prices have shot up now that there is a consumer market!

A new (to me) knit blog. Very nice “gansey” - though not sure it can be if not in authentic yarn - so let’s say “gansey-style sweater” and gorgeous socks. Pups? a bit on the peedie side for me.

I’ve added the feed to my feedreader. Such a neat knitter!
