I've been pretty rubbish at posting lately, as college has consumed my life pretty much, so less time for making and perusing the Internet sadly. Still, I had a visit from my Ma this weekend, who had visited the Knitting and Stitching Show last week. She'd very generously bought me some lovely wool to see my through my student days - so I got stuck in to making this Granny Blanket over the weekend yet. I'll be sure to post it's progress.
In the meantime in case you're interested, the wool came from these people - they have such a brilliantly bright array of colours to choose from, although the pics on their website don't really do them justice. At the centre of the blanket, although not visible here is some lovely natural grey wool, which was a gift from my Dad from the Shetland Islands. Apparently it's so rugged the sheep live by the edge of the sea, happily munching on kelp all day.
