It is finished. On Tuesday I took the throw to Oxford Yarn
Store and Karen Draisey took some photos of it – which are far better than
mine.
If you want to knit one – the
pattern is the same as the English Adventure throw I knitted in Kureyon only this time I used odd balls of lots of
different aran weight yarns.
I haven’t done much knitting this
week as I am decorating. For some reason
I decided to use a red and green colour scheme – I think I have been looking at
poppies for too long. The real reason is
that I love poppies and decided to use them as a feature. My walls have been a beige colour which is
tasteful but boring. I decided they looked
a bit dirty as well as dull and so I have chosen a light green wall paint which
is much more exciting then beige and will contrast well with poppy throws and
red curtains and cushions.
I bought a lot more yarn on
Tuesday – I would love to knit another throw and several more scarves/shawls –
with the amount of yarn I bought – I may finish them by January! I know it has been said before but it is so
true – “so much yarn, so little time”!
Perhaps I should knit a sign that says that!
