Knitspiration #4

Todays' knitspiration is all about my favourite look: baggy! I love wearing baggy tops with skinny bottoms, not only does it look pretty good, but it is also so comfy and cuddly.

 I love the colour of this jumper as well as the stitches used, if only I could afford that much wool..

 Gotta love a classic nineties style, complete with rolled sleeves. I didn't even know that this many cable stitches existed.

 This one, complete with ripped jeans and cuppa tea, is making me want to snuggle up with my dogs.

 I love this girl's boots as well, that jumper looks so comfy.

 An example of how you can do baggy and look smart at the same time; I would love a coat like this.

Lastly: classic nineties child! Sadly I still dress like this ...

Current Projects

I have been working on a few projects at the same time recently, one of them is a big secret as it is a Christmas present for someone special (my sister), so I can't post it on here til after I give it to her.

Here's what I'm working on...

 I'm making a cabled headband for someone...

 I'm making a ribbed beanie for someone...

And I tried out crochet! It doesn't look too bad for a first attempt, however I have to concentrate and look at my hands pretty much the whole time so I can't enjoy it while I'm watching TV like I can with knitting. Maybe I'll practice some more and see how it goes, but for now I'm going to finish off the top-secret-sister-present...

Knitspiration #3

Today's knitsipiration is all about colour...

I need to learn to crochet! Miffy has made a wave blanket like this, it's such a nice stitch.

I love the detail, the colour and the all round awesomeness of this little brooch.

 This is so simple - just a chain stitch on some fabric but doesn't it look wonderful?

I never like using white wool when I make projects but combining it with these fresh summer colours is quite a good idea.

Yeah if I made these shorts I would wear them with pride. Fact.

World's best socks.

Simple granny squares that look like something from Liberty of London! 

I just love colour!
