I know that I am a very poor blogger. I have written a couple of entries since the last published one but, unfortunately, I have managed to lose them when I have tried to publish.

I have found this so disheartening that it has taken me a long time to get around to writing another entry.

No excuse, time to try again!

I finished a beautiful wrap using a stunning sea green Touch yarn boucle a couple of weeks ago and took a photo because it looks so beautiful.

I also finished my recycled cashmere jacket. I had a bought cashmere sweater in my wardrobe which was much too big and didn’t fit me at all. So, I decided to undo the whole thing and reknit it using a Kim Hargreaves pattern that was written for All Seasons Cotton. Amazingly the tension worked out exactly right and I was really pleased with the result. This is despite running out of cashmere for the last few rows around the neck. Fortunately, because the cashmere was a natural colour, I was able to match it with Rareyarn’s  natural DK which matched exactly.

I really believe in recycling beautiful yarn and am delighted that Claire Crompton is doing a recycling & remodeling class for us on 20 April.
