Episode 67: Zips and Lips - a podcast by Nic

from 2013-04-05T13:54:19

:: ::

Hello from an almost Springlike Cheshire Plain, specifically the carpark in the Blakemere Craft Village! In this episode I waffle on about the weather (again!), review something I've never reviewed before and just shake my head in despair at my knitterly ADHD.

What's On The Needles?

Zipping along on the Tomten:

 
I've also swatched for a seamless yoke sweater by Elizabeth Zimmermann (I blame A Playful Day ;) !), using some of the Sheepfold blues and purples and cream left over from my Woolsack cushions. This is one idea for some colourwork....

 

...and this is the first part of the hem, with the picot row worked.
