Oh its Winter

We are 3 weeks into winter and we have had some really cold days and some really nice days for winter.I have been getting some good use of my fingerless mittens and scarfs already.  I will need some  more scarfs soon as all the ones I have are a few years old now. I knit Bella a blue wool dog jumper, she doesn't seem to like it, she just keeps tying to bite it ender the neck and chat.

I have been involed in a week at kiama Community Arts Centre with the Kniiters Guild for the annual exhibition and sale. I sold over half of what I had and have been madly knitting more things as I will be in the centre again next week with the tuesday night knitters. iam saving the money made for a trip to kandos in july to visit friends who own the Convent & Chapel yarn store in Rylstone NSW. I cant wait to go back to the store, it has some fantastic yarns and knitting accessories.

I ordered some Knit Picks from America, I am so glad they ship to Australia now. I had to get some wool to knit some felted slippers in Rooster (football club) colours of red, white and blue for a friend. As they ship for free if you spent $60AUD, I had to get some Diadem DK it is Baby Alpaca and Mulberry Silk, it is the softest yarn I have ever felt.
