Clackety Clack!

With my knitting needles, thats what Ive been doing.

However, the pattern wasnt working for me or more to the point I couldnt make head nor tail of it.

Im an experienced knitter, so patterns dont really prove a problem for me but this one, well! Im not sure if it was me or whether its because its a US pattern but it seemed to be all over the place.

I wouldnt mind but Id already done several rows before I realised it didnt look right.

Shame really as its a lovely cardigan - sorry cant show it to you as I dont have permission :(

For now, Ive given up on that until I can get someone else to look at it and give me their opinion.

So what to do with my lovely chunky wool??

Find another pattern and thats what Ive done, fingers crossed this one works ok.



This one is by Meghan McFarlane

Will keep you posted.

By the way, I havent neglected my crocheted squares, have lots made and still doing them in between knitting of course.

Its the weekend!

Well very nearly.

Got loads of catching up on housework/washing to do, but tonight that can wait, have some more squares to crochet.

Have managed to do quite a few now and quickly too, so coming along nicely.

Poor scrapping has gone to the wayside for now, have tonnes of pics to scrap too!

Mind you I did have a little look through my albums the other day and had a real laugh at some, especially my early ones.

When I look back to last year I didnt do half as much scrapping as I thought I did.

However, I do have a couple of favourites from 2009:







Lets hope my mojo comes back soon!

Have a great weekend, ttfn x
