Plum Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 That looks very fine. Still like the one with slubs in though Have you got sore fingers now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HENthusiastic Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 Thanks guys . I dont know how long it took...... hours and hours though! Its hard to judge how long because I just do it in bits and pieces. Good job I enjoy it. It doesn't make my fingers sore at all. Its quite soft to use. I took it down to the field to show the alpacas, but they didn't seem very impressed I'm goijng away for the weekend, and as well as missing all my lovely chooks and other animals, I think I'm also going to miss my spinning wheel . Its just such a lovely calming thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Now when you pick up your knitting - how long do you spend rubbing it against your cheek before you get cracking on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
