Aqua turquoise blue

Cabled sweater project that took me way too long to finish. Though I quite like how the neckline turned out.

Knitted with Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Luxury, 2.7 balls, size S.

Cabled vest

I love cables. I hadn't knit cabled garment for a long time though. Recently I knitted this vest for myself. Now I have some upcoming projects in mind and if thoughts materialize I should have something to post in the nearest future.

It is nice to create texture. Cables match beautifully with other stitch patterns and it is interesting to think of different ways how to allocate cables along the garment.

WIP - Madelinetosh winter knits

I am not good at finishing anything at the moment but I keep to casting on enthusiastically. Here is what I am working on. Cowl, cardigan and sweater all in various stages of development.

Summer cotton bamboo top

We haven't had any real summer this year but nevertheless I knitted cotton bamboo top. Unfortunately rather dodgy photos as I seem to be missing all the daylight lately and have no chance to set up good photo session.

Top features extra width that adds drape to it. Feels very soft, silky and drapey. Knitted in the round with stitches picked up from neckband. I enjoyed knitting it and hopefully will enjoy wearing it. Next year maybe :)

Woolganics winter coat

I knitted this coat or rather a long cardigan as a main winter overall for 3 year old. I am still considering adding lining but I don't really believe I am up to it. Though it would be warmer and cardigan would keep shape better. Anyway, Woolganics is a wonderful super soft and squishy Australian organic merino that is super warm too. This garment should be warm enough to keep the little girl cosy in the coldest months.

Pictures taken last weekend camping up in the mountains. Otherwise I wouldn't be able to get photos until weather cools down.

I did finish this top!

The top I was talking a while ago in unfinished projects post is finally done! I am happy that I have managed to rework straps and made it wearable.

WIP textured shawl

I am working on this shawl along with several smaller projects. It has been raining a lot recently that has not really provided best circumstances for photo shots.

Purple cardigan

This is the cardigan I have been working on this week for a lovely fellow Australian Raveler. Buttons are preliminary until the right buttons arrive and I am about size smaller than the person cardigan is knitted for. Hopefully fit will be better for the real cardigan owner.

Small shawl

Late Christmas gift modelled by two great helpers.

Pink and brown dress - done!

Finished this on Dec 31st and pics (except the last photo) are taken in our backyard just before we left the house to go see fireworks. For some reasons this dress is a hit and little girl has literally lived in it for a past few days as she really loves it.

Next day I added little snowflake embellishment on front as seen on the last picture. Maybe will add some more as per request (constantly repeated!) of dress owner.

Lace top in Raspberry red

I have knitted quite a few of these tops in different sizes and spent last couple days trying to write down pattern. I can see happy end for this one. Written part is pretty much done, I have to finish charts with all small details to pay attention to, and check maths.

Here are some pics of this top in gorgeous red shade.

Wow!!!

I have been on Etsy Front Page! This treasury made by Dee from rabbitandme was featured there on Saturday December 18th and my white lace socks were included in it. I couldn't believe my shop traffic after this. My shop is rather new and small, and I hardly do any promotional activities. This came as a surprise I had never dreamed about. Ferby does a very happy dance :)

Below is the screenshot of Etsy Front Page and some photos of my knitted lace socks.
