Monday again!

1/21/2013

Here's what I've been trying to finish since Christmas - a leather bag kit from Simple Way http://www.simpleway.co.uk/
Its been really nice to do, & makes a change from knitting! The front panel needed replacing as the holes were too near the edge, but the company were great & made me a new panel. Nearly finished now! Can't wait to use it!

Making Monday!

Natalie from The Yarnyard has invited people who blog to write about it on 'Making Mondays' -

& I'm hoping it will inspire me to blog more recently!

I'm knitting a gilet/waistcoat in this gorgeous chunky Blluefaced Leicester - I'd planned to actually knit MYSELF something over Christmas - its getting a bit embarrassing that I never have time to knit myself a jumper & my old comfy ones are getting tattier & tattier! I'm writing the pattern as I go, but its a simple drapey shape that could be worn with a belt or a shawl pin.
However it stilll needs finishing as I got distracted sewing a leather handbag from a kit (a brillliant Christmas Present!) But that's for another week......

Starting with a Taster Session, where you can come along & try Knitting, Crochet & Spinning on a Drop Spindle.

Also there will be some classes for Beginners & you will learn the basics of knitting & how to make a pair of Easy Fingerless Gloves in Natur-ally Chunky Yarn (choice of colours). There will be a Simple Fingerless Glove Class too & Beginners Crochet.

I'm just waiting for the dates to be confirmed
