Hello :)

Hello and welcome to my blog.  Last night I had the crazy idea to start a blog about my knitting, so here it is.  A blog about my knitting.  Enjoy.

I'll start off my getting you upto date with what I'm currently working on.  I've got a few projects on the go:
  • Gloves for my mum:


I'm using a pattern from the book Gloves by Susette Palmer called Sampler Gloves, and I'm using Sirdar Escape Wool Rich dk.  The pattern is simple to follow, and fun to knit.  I've knit one glove up so far, I'm just waiting for a free day to knit the other up (and weave in all my ends).  So far, so good.
  • Winged Heart Tattoo for my lovely boyfriend (shh its a secret....but I think he'll know now *facepalm*):

I started this last night off a whim, to keep my fingers busy.  I found the pattern on a cute little blog called Jujube & Lolo.  I'm just trying to decide right now whether to add the felted wings or not... An excuse to buy more yarn? :D

I've also got a scarf and a waistcoat on the go, but these have been on the go for a while, with sloooowwww progress.  I have the tendency to start something, then start something else before my last project is finished, although this happens more with the things that take longer to knit.  I'm impatient and like quick results.

I have a fair few projects that I want to start, and am looking forward to starting.  They can be found in my Ravelry Queue.

Also, in the not so distant, future I'm planning on writing up a few of my own patterns :)
