Well I've finally bit the bullet and decided to knit myself a nice jumper for Winter. I went out to spotlight this morning to look for some wool for a pair of longies for Harrison, but ended up finding a really nice pattern book. Of course one look through the patterns in there, I fell in love with this one. Although I'm doing it in blue. It's been soo long since I've gone out and bought proper wool for a project, usually I just get the cheap acrylic stuff, and that does me for what I need. But this time round, I thought I'd better do the job properly. To be honest though, I didn't expect it to cost so much. Ah well such is life.
I'm about a 1/3 of the way up the back, being that the wool is almost 16ply, and the needles are 8mm, it's growing quite quickly. I'll try and get some piccies of it in the next day or two as I get a bit more done.
I've also just completed a pair of longies for a friend. They are quite good for my first go at them, and Bec just loves them. Her son looks just adorable in them. Which is why I decided to make a pair for Harrison. I bought some dark blue, and light blue wool today. I'm going to make him a pair of double blue (Sturt) pants. If they turn out ok, then I might give them a go in Crows colours or something. Just have to wait and see.

That's about it this time. I'll be back in a few weeks when I've totally recovered from my operation which is tomorrow. Take care.. xoxoxo
