Excuse the hairy arm but.......




I wanted to share a pic of what I am working on at the moment, just so you know I do actually get around to some craftin' sometimes, lol.
I really need to get it finished so I can take it with me to use on our train trip to Cairns at the beginning of next month.


Having never been an expert knitter and especially since I haven't knitted for years I am really pleased with how this is turning out, love the color and the feel of the wool. I asked my sister Sandy for the pattern after seeing one she had made, I choose to change the needle size and type of wool used to make it a little bit thicker, but it still has a nice lacy look when spread out, now if I could just get it finished I will be a very happy girl.
