Hi @calmsoul 

 

Thank you so much for sharing the finished product with me 💜

 

Oh wow! It’s absolutely beautiful and I can’t believe that you made this!

 

You’re incredibly talented and I love the fringe around the bottom 😊

 

I just wondered did you teach yourself how to knit?

 

Take care,

 

ShiningStar 💜

Re: Knitting

I've recently joined a local knitting group. The ladies are all lovely and one has even helped me with "an unfinished project" which I am now confident I will finish. It's a baby jacket.

 

I don't know who to tag but I think @Gwynn @ShiningStar @calmsoul @tyme @outlander were once contributors to this group.

Hello @Gwynn how are you?

Re: Knitting

I’m so glad you found a group who helped you get over that hump and you feel confident in your ability to finish that baby jacket. ❤️

I’m starting again on one of my two row repeat scarfs and I’m feeling like I can count by two again after a long time of struggling.

Re: Knitting

Ooo! @Eve7 ! So true! 

 

My niece has been crocheting. I'll send a photo once I get it off her.

Re: Knitting

That's great news about your counting skill returning @Gwynn . Well done You!!!

Re: Knitting

I'd love to see it @tyme 

Re: Knitting

My niece was wearing this really cute cardigan that my older sister knitted @Eve7 . I just went to look for it to take a photo, but I can't find it anywhere! My sister LOVES knitting. I've got bed socks and beanies from her. The kids have got knitted cardigans, vests etc. She also knits the kids soft toys. And she's crocheted a dress for my niece too! I really should take photos.

 

She spins her own wool too.... yeah.. she's a bit of an 'awkies' sister. She's an engineer by trade and works full time, has two kids, cooks....AND just knits.

 

I hope to find these goodies and show you photos.
