Arm twisting........

A customer emailed me to ask if I'd come out of the Woolly Wilderness just one last time......
I am rather pleased with the results......
**grins**

Going out with a bang ;)

This is my last two customs for a while.......they didn't half turn out well though ;)

Some Woolly content as well....

This is the first pair of pants I've knit for a while, in the "Sophie" colourway.....leg trims are cashmerino...

I think these turned out really well, I think the waistband, frills and pockets all in white make them look ever so pretty and girly :)

I have two more custom pairs of Longies to do, and then I am going to take a 6 month break. I am worn out from knitting woollies....I've been doing it for nearly 3 years now!!! I SO want to knit for myself and my family more. I think a 6 month break is called for....

I'm in The Green Parent, again!!!

The lovely Nic texted me today to say she'd seen my woollies in The Green Parent again...and then she sent this pic over to me!!! I've included a picture of the original woollies, which are now owned by Nyree Dawn of Bums and Roses
They look great, and of course, they are number 1..... **grins** hehehehe

Knitterly content :)

There's been a severe lack of knitterly content over the last month hasn't there, its all been about shameless self promotion :D

Here's some custom woollies I have finished over the last week or so.....yeah I know.....nothing for me.... **sighs**

Double Frill Crops

I am so please with how these have turned out.... I've never tried doing a double frill on the leg cuffs before!!! They are a little heavier than a standard pair of crops, because of the extra yarn used...but that will help with the drape :) I used DK for this very reason....a double cuff on an aran pair would have made them very heavy.

I had 100g of Merino/Alpaca DK in ivory, and the same again in pink.....and I dyed them both identically and then changed colour, throughout the garment, every 9 rows. This helps avoid pooling, and just generally makes the colour scheme a little more interesting :)

Enchanted cropped Longies

These are medium size.......and I love the way they have turned out :) Hardle any pooling...!!!! Not that I mind pooling, but it's nice not to have any sometimes!!!

Another Rose Garden combo :)

These seem to have taken forever, mainly because right from the off I've never thought the customer will like them.....

I love them though, they've turned out beautifully, and made all the better for having a little touch of Mrs Flowerpot on them :) She sent me the crocheted flowers ages ago, and I hunted high and low for them to make this set look extra special :D

Floribunda Stuffienappy Set

Finished the woollies last night......I am really pleased with the leg cuffs!!!

busyBusyBUSY!!!

Phew....I have dyed over a kilo of wool sofar this week....and its only Tuesday!!! Another kilo to go......and then I am definitely having a rest.....hehehe

I finished these the other day, they are a medium, and they are in the shop. They are made from KraftyKoala "Prism" Organic Merino Aran......and some turquoise Organic Merino I dyed up myself.

This is for a custom order, "Caramel Candy" Organic Merino Aran

These are for the same custom order, its "Lottieru" on Organic Merino Aran.....its come out soooo well!!

And last but not least, this is some BFL/Corriedale handspun Aran, that I have overdyed in the "Storm" colourway...I love this yarn, I really do. Its for a VERY special project ***grins***

Some knitting content....albeit work ;)

The top pair are for my skill swap, in a Large size. The yarn knitted perfectly to gauge...... :D They are off to the U S of A tomorrow, plus 200g of my handspun base yarn :)

The bottom two pairs are both in the "Rose Garden" colourway, and are a custom order from the website....

Very pleased with them all.....***grins***

Big Pants!!!!

Dyed with food grade dyes.....both XL :)

Festival!!!

These have been finished in double quick time....'bout 6 hours :) Using up the last of my stashed hand-dyed....they are a small size (thats why they were quick to knit) and are in the Instock shop!

Aegian Cropped Longies

Using up the last of my hand dyed stash.....these are a medium size, with a 5 inch inseam. Going into my instock shop tonight!!

Tiger Tiger!!!

Created from KraftyKoala Organic Merino, in a large size, with a 6 inch inseam. Going into my Instock shop tonight :)

Enchanted Forest

This is one of my new colourways.....and I just had to see how it knitted up for myself.....so I used the last of my Organic merino and dyes 150g of the variegated and a 50g black trim. I am so pleased with them....!!!

They will be in my Instock shop tonight, hopefully :)
