I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

Knitting Olympics Day Two - Anti-Vampire Knitting


I think I have discovered the key to black Kidsilk Haze success - knit only in the hours of daylight. (hmmm, another challenge - guess when I usually knit?)

This morning I have completed the first ruffle on the first wristlet. OK - not much, I know, but at least it's OK and I didn't have to rip any out! Not only that, but during the day, I can see clearly enough to manage without the stitch markers.

That's progress IMHO!

With a heading like that Gill, I had to have another look at your blog.
I bought black wool to knit a jacket, now that was a mistake!

Looks like a dead imnsect to me Gill, with long shiny legs, antennae and an orange mouthpiece! Can you tell I don't knit?

This looks intriguing, Gill - can't wait to see how it ends up! Lovely view you've got there too...
