Finished my owly mitts last night YAY! I love the way the simple patten of cables makes these adorable little owls, the beads for eyes is a fab finishing touch too, I'm thrilled with them. Think I made these at the right time too as the weather has gone a bit pear shaped again, gale force freezing winds and showery rain too, and there was me thinking spring was here, lol!
Emptied out the big whiskey bottle of odd change at the weekend so I had some money to spend :-) After seeing the book of knitted blankets I got a week or so ago I thought I'd get the first one, typical of me to buy the second one first, lol! So here it is,
The Teddy Bear book influenced this one as they were such lovely designs, love the little doggy in has basket on the cover too! Another great one with lots of designs from reindeer to pixies :-)
I started knitting the cardigan last night with the purpley lilacy wool I got this week. Seems a simple pattern so I'm hoping it won't take too long to make as I want to be wearing it!

Fantastic owl mitts! What a clever pattern. Lovely new books too, so tempting! :)
I love the mitts too.. well spotted! And so good of Lee to model them! I think you may need to get another bookcase.. or are these lovely books for your coffee table??
Oooh, lovely Lori. I've got the blankets book. Great isn't it. I really like the throw with the beaded flowers on it, but you're right, the beach hut one is gorgeous. Sandra Polley is a genius. I think I might have that pattern too actually. Lx
