Let's Knit Magazine - Your knitting, your style

I decided to make my first project back into knitting a simple one that wouldn’t take too long to complete so I can look forward to the next item of course!  So I’m knitting a very pretty top with a frill down the front in pretty green Sirdar Just Bamboo - just the sort of thing you would find in Per Una I think.  I invested in new bamboo needles that I find absolutely amazing to knit with and I love the bamboo yarn - just hope there’s enough left for the pandas!

I already have some wool on order from the wool shop for a cardy and I am seriously tempted to make a felted bag too.  Oh and I’d like to tackle socks too. I can see this is going to become a problem just like in the old days when I had bags of wool hidden all over the place!

I like the sound of your top Sarnj...I have used the Sirdar Bamboo and liked it.  So...post a pic as you get on a bit with it...good luck.  I can see from you list of ‘things to do’ you are going to be back into knitting with a BANG

Yes it doesn’t take long to get back into the ‘swing’ of things does it ? x Janet

Oh dear, sounds like you will be in the same boat as the reat of us then. WELCOME ABOARD. xx

Welcome back to the pins and one of the reasons I knit stuff is because PER UNA seem to be for sticks and not a more substantial figure!!!!!!!

Dont worry about stash-building thats what it is all about is,nt it?????????

I’m obviously in the right place with you guys then!  Makes me feel a bit less guilty.

I’ll have to search out a few more hidey holes to stash things in! :D

There is never any guilt for buying wool, I gave up smoking last year, so am probably spending less on wool than I was on fags !!! x janet
