I made this! Knit-tastic.

Knitting is all the rage at the moment. There's a fashion for the 'Make Do and Mend' ethic which i commend, but do feel it will be soon forgotten and a new fad will be embraced. That being said, i love the it, and it's not just a money thing, it's the creativity and the pride in making something by hand, myself.


And so, here's my first finished knit project - and i don't think it's so bad! I knitted a long scarf, and attached a bobble fringe to finish it off. I'm pretty chuffed with it. What to knit next....

For the bobble trim, i went to the fantastic Barnett Lawson  - an Aladin's cave of buttons, trimmings, ribbon...the works. Be warned - you won't leave empty handed. http://www.bltrimmings.com/
