Aspen Tea Leaves Cardi

Yep another knit for me :-)

Pattern Tea Leaves Cardi
Yarn Sirdar Denim Tweed DK-Colour Aspen Blue Really good price at that link ;)
Buttons Bunyip, their shop isn't too far from me and had great fun choosing them.

Pattern is very simply written and easy to follow.
Made mine longer and added shaping to the body to give it more swing by increasing down the side seams, also shaped the sleeves more at the cuffs as I don't care for loose fitting cuffs!

Now waiting on cooler weather to wear it lol..

Twinkle Pink Daisy

Lucky me got to test Anni's  Daisy Shawlette and get to keep it too as she already had a sample, all I needed to do was check out pattern and make sure there was enough yarn

Here is mine

The yarn is Twinkletoes Sock yarn
Which is gorgeous to work with, soft and squishy with subtle sparkles
I started with 102grams and finished with  2 yrds left over..
Pattern is now available to buy from the above link.. its a very enjoyable knit :)

Hazelnut Pulli

Is finally finished!  been on the needles for a while as I had 3 pieces of knitting work between.. more about those when released.

So here is the pulli all done

I added length to the body and didn't do the waist shaping.. it took 6 balls of Sirdar Denim Tweed DK

One of the knits I did for Anni a while back has been published and you can see and read about it on her blog here

Next to tackle will be a test knit of her gorgeous Daisy shawl, I saw her version on Tuesday at the Spin a Yarn knit morning and it stunning!

The yarn should arrive to day, looking forward to trying out her Twinkletoes yarn :)

Sparkle Renita

This was a quick and simple knit, the yarn and pattern worked well together..

 Shame the sparkle doesn't shine in the photos!

Love the stripey sparkly yarn and the pattern Renita is charming to work, simple enough to pick up as and when but not at all boring, which in the past I have found with this type of design, where you work sideways.. starting with a few stitches, increasing to mid point, then decrease to the end point.

Really pleased I bought the e-book Sideways Shawlettes as I can see me making more.
