So two weeks and a bit into Crafts from the Cwtch's Make-along and I am making fairly good progress, I can't tell you how lovely it is to be knitting again....it seems like I've been away for years (which isn't true of course) but it's a happy reunion. I've even managed to do some knitting-on-the-go, the best thing about doing a small project like this is I can chuck it in the car and hope that I'll find a spare few minutes to fit some knitting in....and I have!

It isn't exactly the best choice of colours, and actually the photos don't really show them as they are....but I am enjoying the design and the colours work with it I think. I wanted to show you my inspiration....when I first started with the blue and green, they so made me think of the bluebells, although try as I might, I have not managed, on many occasions, to capture the real deep blue I could see. Anyway....the pink made me think of the pink campions as it started to work in.....

I'm enjoying this one....I'm also looking forward to doing another shawl as soon as this one is off the needles....I think I have certainly discovered my weakness.....I've always had a huge blanket obsession, but shawls are just mini-blankets right? Comforting, warm, pretty and quicker to make than blankets.....what could be better?
The colors are beautiful together Faith. Good luck with it.

It's an interesting design. Your nature inspiration is great.
ReplyDeleteI think the colours are great - so cheery and spring-y. What a fun design too!
ReplyDeleteYes, shawls are definitely just little blankets. Usually prettier ones too. :D
