Let's Knit Magazine - Your knitting, your style

These were knitted in King Cole Splash.
I love the way they’ve worked out geometrically, but it’s odd that the green one is in quarters and the purple one is in thirds, especially as there are 11 repeats in the pattern.

Wow they look great, did they take very long?

They’ve taken me just over a day each - but I’ve not done too much housework

Oh dear, I;m having an argument in my head, finish ufo’s vs cast on new projects. My head hurt before this started.

Do two rows of a UFO to fell you’ve done something - then cast on something new, best of both worlds.

I have 4 UFO’s all at the half way point. That just won’t be enough . I’d beeter go and do some jobs so I can then do some knitting!

Wow indeed they look fab!!

they look lovely, I won’t embarrass myself again but saying I thought they were circular rugs, (but you can see why I thought so ) x Janet

They are lovely.

Wow!  They look great!  You gotta love those self patterning yarns! The purple one is lovely!

they look great, love the colours!

I nearly posted them as two more rugs

Brilliant… I love the purple one.

Love the way they have knitted up. I was in the wool shop today and considered buying some Splash but wasn’t sure how it would knit up, think I’ve been swayed. Bought 2 balls Freedom Spirit in Blue colours I am going to knit socks with it and out of the going cheap £1 ball 6 of Grey Glitz plus 6 of Patons coral. I have started knitting a simple cardi but as usual I have made changes. This time I am sticking to the style but adding lace panels, oh well.  I was in a charity shop (next to the bus stop at the top cross) as I was passing it to go to the wool shop and bought 7 patterns, they had lots of needles but no wool. The lady I was talking to likes to knit with bulky wool so I am giving her mine as I do not want to use it. Now there are 2 knitting magazines on sale not our beloved Lets knit but one has a book for knitted bears, and the other knitted baby things, just in case anyone is looking for ideas.
