SO EXCITED MY HEAD IS BUZZING

Checker pattern
made with mixed Merino yarns and a 10 mm hook...could see the beginnings of an idea when l added the small balls left from the 'Partridge in a Pear Tree' and Christmas jewellery
checker pattern from one of the books l bought....all of them have some fabulous ideas stitches or tips in them...some stuff l'll never use some l'll try out and some l will probably work to death because l love the pattern hehe

A few months back l went to a wonderful little shop in Much Wenlock called IPPIKIN a real treasure house of ideas and yarns and the owner is so helpful

l did have a little play with the fabulous yarns l purchased but wasn't happy with what l did so l put them to one side for a rainy day!!
Must have poured yesterday!! lol.....l was inspired

Sorry l can't really share much of what l did with you yet but l'm hoping there will be lots of interesting experimental stuff and unusual yarn combos to come!!
l love January don't you?
l always seem to be flooded with lots of new ideas!! hehe

  3. Okay I've got to say it, how do you make the balls and what's inside them? I love the color combo on your header also, but I love your sense of color altogether. Love following your blog.
