Tangled sweater is complete and blocked. I'll get some better photos in the next couple of days as I'm still feeling rundown with this cold and my head just isn't in the game.

As you can see I made some mods to the sleeves. I love a short sleeve top to wear on its own or over a longer sleeved top in the cooler weather.

I'll post about meterage and colours later, so you have information for yarn shopping at thr Festival. Not long to go now.

repost via @instarepost20 from @hiladels I am busy joining. I am using a slightly adapted version of the #twinpetaljoin by @mijocrochet
The patterns for the squares are from the #gumdropgardenblanket by #cypresstextiles
The joining yarn with coloured flecks was dyed for me by Louise @bowfiddleyarns
The other yarns are #langyarnskylie and #fleurville4ply from #theyarncollective
I think the #handdyedyarns give a painterly look.

I'm full of the cold and wheezing like a broken dog toy. I haven't felt this under the weather for years, so apologies if its been a bit quiet on here.

During the week I dreamt I was being chased by Trump which was unexpected.

As I'm not as delirious as I was, here's 15% off all spend over £30.
Coupon should be automatically applied, gift cards are excluded from this offer.

So if you too are having a lazy day on the sofa, why not treat yourself to a new yarn for that project you have looking at online .

I've been feeling a bit under the weather after catching a cold from Mr Bow Fiddle.

The upside is the body of the #tangledsweater is finished. 🎉🎉

Now to start on sleeve island.

It's such a fun design from @eildonhillsdesigns and I'm sure you'll enjoy making this.

New colourway listed with my inspiration photo at the end.

As many of you know I love a murder mystery and true crime podcast so I'm putting together a mini collection of "watching the detectives" together as a homage to this genre.

Who is your favourite sleuth ?

It's May. How on earth did we get here. It doesn't feel spring like at all, but it is a Bank Holiday today so I hope that if you can you can enjoy some crafting time.

It's also the week of the Coronation and this part of a panel that was on display at @wonderwoolwales seems apt.

There were 7 panels on display and celebrating highlights of the eras covered.

The amount of work involved was inspiring.

Just look at this yarn....

Once you've gone wow I'll now tell you it's a DK weight blue faced Leicester, silk and cashmere base.

An amazing sheen and stitch definition awaits.

Why not check out the website for all of the colours?

When you can't sleep so you decide to get up and get some knitting done.

Making good progress on the jumper for @tangledgalashiels

I was worried I wouldn't get it finished, but now I'm on the body it'll grow really fast.

Fingers crossed it's finished in time. Do you think I'll make it ?

The much admired #rebelrebelcardigan from Truly Myrtle designs.

You may have seen this sample at a show, and the different coloured pockets have been much admired.

I adore this garment as it is so easy to wear and goes with everything. This was knitted in Seaglass, and as soon as it is listed on the website it goes. There is a small amount left after Wonderwool wales so if you too feel rebellious why not make your own.

I also stock the pattern (if you don't already have it).

Unfortunately the model is now in retirement 😆

My next event is the Highland Wool Fest at the end of May hosted by @highland_wool_and_textiles .

I haven't been to this event for a number of years, but as it was my very first yarn festival it has a special place in my heart.

So much has changed over the years, with lots of lovely squishy yarn, stitch markers and yarn cosies all making an appearance.

I'll be showcasing some new items over the next couple of weeks, but I hope that you can come along and say hello.

If you have any makes from 2018 I would love to see them.

If you missed the reel yesterday these yarns will be making their way to @wonderwoolwales this weekend.

This is a new base for me. A superwash merino, nylon and yak mix and it takes the dye brilliantly.

Which one is your favourite ?

If you are visiting please stop by stand K6 in Hall 1 to say hello.
