I’m making a Kim Hargreaves garment ‘Dusk’ from ‘Heartfelt’ in a dark brown Rowan Felted Tweed. It’s a wrap around cardi sort of thing. Simple knitting so I don’t have to concentrate as my daughter and three grandchildren will be here.

I am pleased with it, I used flannel that I got locally , quite dark, and will look lovely with some dark tights, I think. Still getting used to my overlocker and learnt a lot making this.

Linda replied to the topic What do you watch while you craft? in the forum
Fiber Club! 10 years agoOh a real mixture! Series like Homeland, Broadchurch, Great British Bake Off, old films that no one else in my house wants to watch(!).

My husband will be working in Calcutta shortly and I had been thinking about getting him to buy me some fabric whilst he was there. I h ave been wondering though how practical it would be if he bought me saris- would they be too fine to sew garments?

That’s really interesting, thank you. I go to Bradford in the UK which has lots of Indian fabric (and food!) Shops. I am in love with the beautiful bright fabrics, especially the reds and pinks.

Sarvi started the topic What do you watch while you craft? in the forum
Fiber Club! 10 years agoI found this interesting thread:
after searching for good movies or shows to watch while knitting. My Netflix queue is split into more serious films to which I’d like to give my full attention, and stuff I think might be good for my daughter but that won’t be in the…[Read more]

Cooking and Baking 10 years agoAny boulangers in the house? I spent a lot of time cultivating my sourdough starter last year, but killed it as it seemed to be the only way to stop myself eating two loaves of bread a week. Since then, I’ve tried twice to restart but both times my starter died, so baffling! I think possibly I was feeding it too infrequently (I think my home is…[Read more]

Hello and welcome! I’m in the middle of a big parcel of work right now but I’m knitting away at this:
in a dark grey Madelinetosh Vintage and am just thrilled with it so far. I LOVE the tubular cast-on, it just looks so great. Where has this cast-on been all my life?
