dum de dum




So this week has had it's ups and downs, not really bad downs, but ones that prevent me from flowing properly with my work, so some days I really had to push my way through the day,
like yesterday I knitted up a pair of gloves, I've knitted hundreds of gloves but if I made one mistake I made a dozen, and it was driving me crazy, I just wasn't in the flow.
Thankfully after an early night (which I've not had for ages) this morning my flow was back. So I was able to fly through my knitting, stitching and packing. Which is a relief, Lets hope it remains like this for the foreseeable future.

The cardigan above is a custom order for a lady in italy. This will be a one of a kind in this yarn, as I think I've bought every single spare ball in the country. I lost a bid for 10 more balls on Ebay this week, only to get an email half an hour later asking if I'd like a 2nd chance, Whopppeee, 'yes please', So I now have the 10 balls, sat waiting to be knitted into a wrap around for my regular customer in New York.

my new coat, jacket which I got in the sale

I've been after a jacket for a while but never stumbled upon anything I liked, this one buttons on the side, and the back is shorter than the front. it's really cute.
It was a tiny bit pricey at £101.00 I thought the hand written price tag said £61.00 but when they cashed it up, I was already in love. so the deal was done with http://www.allsaints.com/womens/
