Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch

WL I might have some old baby patterns, would be v happy to pass them on if you were interested - could post a pic so you can see what they're for. I definitely made Sarah some tie-dye dungarees.

Groovy!

That would be lovely :-)
I've been looking at Burda patterns on line - dungarees and pinafores.

I've just about finished my first pair of cable socks (just have to sew the toe but always have to check and follow very carefully the instructions for the Kitchener stitch!!)

But the ribbing on the second one is tighter and neater than the first one (practice makes perfect!) would you redo the first one or just leave it?

unless it's too tight to wear, i'd leave it as wearing them will block them out anyway.

I always have to remind myself with Kitchener stitch - I've got the instructions bookmarked on my ipad!

The last pair of socks didn't get Kitchenered. I cast off and then sewed up the seam - it looks strong enough :-)

Made a bit of progress with my sunflower blanket, including a redesign around colours so that I'm using wool up rather than having to buy too much more, and hopefully anything I do buy will be pretty much used for the blanket.

Oh and still looking for the baby patterns for WL ... maybe I got rid of them (but that would be very unlike me!)
