Knitted things.

Sleeves

About 50 rows done on the Tequila Sunrise sleeves. Feels like it’s taking forever. I suppose that’s because I’m doing them at the same time. I didn’t make the quilt under the sleeves, my mum’s the quilter in the family.

Spent a few hours yesterday helping my mum clear out the spare room and found some of my old toys including a knitted Bill The Badger (Rupert The Bear’s friend) made by my Nanny many years ago. He has separate knitted trousers, waistcoat, bowtie and jacket! And now I fully appreciate the work that must have gone into making him, especially the checked pattern on the jacket. We also found two clown type creatures with crocheted twirly arms, legs and bodies like the twirly scarves that were popular this winter. I will post pictures I promise!

I’ve also knitted a swatch in royal blue and white dk as I am going to knit a stripy beanie hat for a friend’s son and he’s a Chelsea FC fan.
