The group have continued to meet online every Friday throughout August. This month we’ve mostly been making blankets.
A crocheted this one.
L completed this one in shades of Lilac and purple.
She’s now moved on to this black and grey one with a touch of sparkle.
R completed her Aztec Blanket. This was knitted to twice the final size, then folded in half and stitched together,. She finished off by adding a fringe. As it is double thickness, this is going to be really warm and cosy.
The rest of us have been working on sweaters. Y has been knitting this raspberry pink cable design – it’s a commission using handspun yarn (not her own). Unusually for Y, this one is knitted in the round – she’s usually a two-needle knitter!.
I finally completed my striped sweater in alpaca yarn from fibre that I prepped, spun and dyed myself…..from the animal’s back to my own! I just need to block it now.
It’s been lovely watching everyone’s projects take shape over the last few weeks.
Stitches by the Sea 
Wow that is amazing that you spun and dyed the yarn that you created your sweater with!

Thank you! I’m really pleased with it – my biggest handspun project so far.
