Knitted socks what’s not to love?
I flashed my latest knitted footwear on Episode 8 of The Olann and Podcast, but they still need to be documented here.

The Knitted Ends of 2016
My home, like many others at the moment, is full of sick people – yuck! I myself am currently trying to get over a cold, the second virus in four weeks. Touch wood, there is no infection anywhere, so I’m assuming my immune system is just having a spot of trouble fighting it off, on account of it being suppressed by my RA medication. You can’t take your injections when your ill, so I’ve missed three so far, which isn’t helping with the underlying condition, but it could be a lot worse – at least I’ve still been able to knit, while I’ve been awake that is ♥
Knitting – My Cast on Mania
This week is a good week (so far anyway), we’re waiting on test results, but it’s going to be all good I can feel it in my bones. If were being honest, some of my favourite people, no longer inhabit the same world as me, so the least they can do is look after the other important to me, people. It’s not too much to ask now is it?
Enough nonsense, lets talk knitting and yarn…..
A Big Knitted Hug
I’ve been a little absent on here of late, sorry.
The truth is I’ve been a little absent of late everywhere. As I said in one of my previous posts, there have been many changes to my day to day family life recently. To top it all off, the optician spotted something amiss at my youngest’s routine eye test. He’s been to the hospital twice so far and we’re currently waiting for him to be called in for a few more checks. Fingers crossed it’ll be nothing, but it’s always better to be safe than sorry.
Knitting Short Rows – My Favourite Technique
As most of you probably know by now, one of my current works in progress is the Vitamin D Cardigan by Heidi Kirrmaier. It’s been on the needles for a little while now, as I’ve been rather distracted by all of the other wip’s that I need to get through and the odd new project or swatch for Olann and.
Empty Nest Syndrome – Knitting my way through it.
For the majority of my adult life I’ve been a mum
For all of my adult life I’ve been a mum, I had Dina before I was old enough to vote and if we’re being honest, I’ve grown up with my kids, the older two especially. You’d be forgiven for thinking, that I probably never had a chance to leave home before my children came along, but that’s not the case. I’d already been living ‘independently’, on and off for about two years, before I had Dina (whole different story and something akin to an Eastenders plot line).
Fixing Those Sleeves
A few of you might have seen this photo on Instagram earlier this week? If you did, you’ll also know that I’m on a mission to fix a cardigan.
Did You See Those Socks?
I think I’m having some kind of foot fetish of late, as I’ve got a bit of a one track mind when it comes to my knitting.
Knitting Libran – Part 2
When we look at a knitting or crochet garment, we tend only to see the whole thing. The overall look, is the reason why we chose the pattern in the first place after all. Sometimes though it’s how the different elements combine, to create something that can really give you that wow factor.
Unisex Knitting
I sat down to write a different post today, but suddenly realised I had yet to share this make with you and I really do love it.
