Knitty friendship

Know as everyone knows knitters are a very happy go lucky bunch. There are stereotypes within knitting there is bound to be the outdoorsy type - i go on a hike pop into a farm shop and still but yarn, the ultimate perfectionist - she is very glamorous usually has knit pro needles and gorgeous yarns that all will covet, the social knitter - who has a million and one things going on but still has time for Monday nights at Sainsbury's, and finally the homemaker - has more than one child but adores her man and her brood and would do anything for them but not foregoing knitting club. So i have decided that when you put us all together we are at one and are knitty friends thus creating knitty friendship. 


I have not been going long but they listen to my woes i theirs and they have taken me into the fold and hopefully i will be joining a few of them at unravel this year which i am so excited about. I also thank Ravelry for without this wonderful site i would never have joined the fold of knitty friendship or even knew that such lovely like minded folks were out there.


Moving on from the excitement that is my Monday night knit club i have sadly broken 3 out of my 4 sort of resolutions. I am not exercising enough, i am not being creative enough, i lost no weight and i was late with my blog but i am still trying to make something every week and here is this weeks project which will be winging it's way to Devon to my friends daughter Phoebe. See below image


This like many of my current projects is knitted with big softie, i have a love affair with this yarn and have found out it's on sale for a very reasonable price at Remnant Kings. co.uk so if your after some head there now as it's so fun to knit with and gives you IKG Instant Knitty Gratification apparently time pressed women are craving this more and more so i guess i must be a sufferer. 
Anyway see you all next Monday and feel free to leave your views on big softie yarn.
