Cari finished picture

I am very pleased with this one! The Sirdar Flirt is lovely to work with, and the bamboo/wool mix gives a lovely sheen and drape. It was 'launched' on an an outing to our Notaire on Thursday.

Flower making

We have started working on the flowers for this year's summer events in the village. 9,300 are needed to cover the Place de Mairie. I have been two afternoons this week to work with the ladies and will be back again on Tuesday after the Easter holiday.

In the evenings, I am still busy with the needles and have started a pattern that I have liked for some time; Cari from the Rowan Lenpur Linen collection. I have substituted Sirdar Flirt and this is working well, as it has a lovely drape to it.

Spring knitting

My thoughts have turned to knitting for warmer times ahead and this lacy cardigan from Sirdar fits the bill perfectly. It is now finished and will add a picture later .

A taste of summer

The sun is still shining today and a lovely delivery of summer yarn arrived from Sirdar. The colours are so lovely and fresh. They looked great all spread out on the table and ready to be checked off. Lots of new patterns arrived too and we will be busy getting everything put on the website over the next week or so.
