Remember that thing I was knitting over Christmas? That green thing that didn't really look like much? Well now it has grown up into a shawl! It took a little longer than predicted but that was due to me running out of yarn 4 rows from the end and having to beg borrow and steal some more yarn!
The pattern is Haruni by Emily Ross. Yarn is Wollmeise 100% merino, Variegated green.

Rowan's first weave
For my first weaving project I wove a table runner (or a scarf or a belt, whatever).
The warp (vertical) is a basic green and brown sock yarn and the weft (horizontal) is recycled sari silk that I purchased at the Millarville farmers market. I love how the colours in the silk come out!

Jason has a new love
My mum (Serena Martindale) gave Jason a bread machine for Christmas.... he loves it more than he loves me! We have already used it for 2 bread items in the last 24 hours!!!
Stay tuned... on Monday I get my loom and then I'll have an inanimate object to love!

So you thought you'd be knitting.....
Yesterday I lay one of my knitting projects out to take a photo of it before I felted it (washed it with the idea of shrinking it)... but Whitie had other ideas....
Ohhh look! Something for me to lie on!
This is nice!
Hey... you, cut it out with the flash!
