Five months late, but I finally spent my birthday yarn gift certificate at Stash today.
It’s been a very non-knitting sort of week due to the evil heat. I’ve spent most days in very little clothing with an electric fan wafting over me in an attempt to cool me down. So my Wimbledon knitting hasn’t progressed much further than the photos from last week. Fortunately, today was better and trekking into town wasn’t that bad and hopefully I can pick up the needles again now the temperature has dropped below 30 degrees, especially as I have new goodies!
I bought five squishy balls of Debbie Bliss Cashmerino DK in a lovely rich cranberry red colour which is earmarked for a Pea Pod Baby Sweater (Ravelry link). I also bought a Dale of Norway baby pattern book for some steeking fun
. You can see all the patterns in the book here. There are hats with ears, so it was kind of calling out to me!





The outfits in that Dale of Norway baby book gave me a cute burn!
My daughter is moving to Edinburgh in September to attend the University. I hope she meets a nice Scottish boy and I can knit some of those!
Oh how cute are those patterns!!! Especially the girls fair isle sets and the cow suit!!! *keels over from the cuteness*
