Knitting Time

Hello crafters. It is my turn to showcase an image from Sasayaki Glitter. I thought I would stay away from the cute girlie images this time and, instead, chose a cute bunny with her knitting...as you do!! 


I used my Lyra Rembrandt pencils to colour her to match the Craftwork cards papers. I was lacking mojo so visited Jules in order to borrow another of her sketches. This one is #7. The sentiments are from a Clearly Besotted Stamp set and I used the coordinating die for the label too, although they must be discontinued as I can't find them on the website.

I chose this image because I have actually been knitting for a change and have just finished a, one ball, pretty shawl. It's purpose is to jazz up a very smart black full length coat that I bought last winter and never actually  got to wear because it was too warm!!

Thought you might like a peep.


It was made using Sirdar Colour Wheel and the pattern came on the ball band.

Thank you for your continued visits and comments xx

Super shawl, my friend Di is down here at the mo and is crocheting a seaside inspired wave blanket! Can't decide what it wants to do weatherwise, lashing rain one minute followed by bright warm sunshine the next! :)

Awww what a cutie! Love your knitting too, that'll be so pretty against your black coat! I haven't knit for years, and I've a touch of arthritis in my fingers now so I'm not likely to take it up again :(

Lovely little pup and a lovely shawl too, although I'm not sure about the concept of a coat that is 'too' warm! :0) xx

A very cute image and card Sarah, love those papers too. Your shawl is so pretty using this rainbow wool and fabulous stitch, it will look great on that black coat although if it turns out to be a very cold winter I'm blaming you! :)
