Vintage Stuff



Well, I think I have managed to shake this annoying cold I have had all week I rarely seem to be without a cold these days. Thankfully it didnt stop me from knitting though it did stop me blogging.

Anyway, I have nearly finished the Debbie Bliss sweater, luckily Cathi and I managed a couple of knitting afternoons during the week. My husband and I are heading off the Barcelona on Monday for five days and I really really want that pink sweater for the trip.

On a recent rumage in my parents loft I came across this set of folders , they appeared a little dated with soem very 80's knitting patternns , but there are soem really useful toy patterns , childrens patterns and a stitch library, they are great. My mother says she picked them up at a car boot sale years ago and they have been in the loft since, I also came across this Aran knitting book with some really cool hat and scarf patterns, as well as my sock knitting goals I would really like to do some Aran, but cant rally see myself in an Aran sweater, perhaps a scarf!!!!!!!
