And the finished product is!!!

Well It's mid April and not too many showers but boy has it been busy. Works been busy with lots of teachins. Last week I taught three people how to knit including a six year old girl called Amy. She learnt left handed and I am pleased to say that she is a complete natural. She's coming back to learn purl when she next visits her nan. The jobs going well and I really enjoy the selling and the teaching. At the moment I am doing at least one teach in a day and I get real job satisafaction from them.
I have finished Porgies top but still need to sew the sides up. He has promised to model it for me and says he will wear it. We shall see!
I knitted a corsage from the RYC Lux book and even if I do say so myself it looks amazing. It was very easy to make although I did need eldest to roll it in position for me to sew up. Guess what people will be getting as Christmas presents.

April WIP


Well whadda you know I'm updating early. In the picture are my current WIP for April. The beige is my scarf in Rowan Big Wool and Wendy Chic. The green is Rambling Rose which I am undoing as I have decided it is not really me. The union jack is a tank top for Porgies birthday knitted in RYC Cashsoft 4ply and I have to say I am really enjoying knitting this. The multi coloured one is the artists jackets from Classic Beach in Luxury Cotton DK. I have mispalced my earrings at the moment so Photos to follow
