New work: inspired by pink

New bubble scarves and cuffs inspired by pink and the beginning of spring.

At last my tea is cosy

My first attempt at knitting with 2 sets of double pointed needles. After an infuriating afternoon of not understanding the instructions and making it more complicated than necessary, I finally worked it out! Now I might be able to try one of Loani Proir's more exciting designs for keeping my teapot cosy

Bendigo sheep and wool show

This pile of beautiful new additions to my wool stash is the result of my weekend excursion to the Bendigo Sheep and Wool Show; inspiring enough for me to try a new hand knit project.

more bubbles

More fuchia curves and bubbles- I can't seem to resist the beautiful red dye pot!

Please visit the Geelong Wool Museum website to see photos of the scarf awards being presented. It is not too late to get to the exhibition- it finishes on July 25th. http://www.geelongaustralia.com.au/nwm/about/services/article/8cce757c5a9d9f2.aspx

New work

This is my latest work in the bubble wrap range of scarves. They are all 100% wool and have a very handy loop at one end so you can wrap up securely to avoid those icy winds.

In 2009 I won "Best Transformations of Different Techniques In A Scarf" in the scarf festival at the Geelong Wool Museum with this multi-coloured scarf.

In 2009 I started experimenting with forms based on 19th century collars.

In 2008 I made a series of hotwater bottle covers. These are available at Craft Victoria.
