This week I have been continuing
my latest attempt to reduce the amount of stuff that I have accummuated. I haven’t looked at my wool. I know I have got a lot of it – but I will
knit it one day!
I looked under the bed (I have
got one of those beds with drawers at the bottom and the sides) and found a few
things that I knitted about 10 years ago (and then put under the bed). I don’t actually remember knitting any of
them.
I know that when I knitted this
jacket – I was trying out a blending technique involving knitting with 2 yarns
at the same time.
The following photo shows a
little Fair-isle jacket that I knitted as a sample.
And this is a little jumper I
knitted using a two-colour technique – I suppose it is Fair-isle as well – but it
may have another name.
I have sent the first 2 to
charity – but I have kept the last one for the moment. I love this technique – many years ago I knitted
a black and white jacket that was like this.
It was much admired and I would like to make another one. It will go on the list!
