Most of the knitting has been for the course, or the Unbloggable Project (now a very large piece of washing indeed, and 20 rows off the end...). Here's the room during the course last weekend - I was teaching at White House Arts, a lovely venue with extremely friendly owners/organisers and very nice course participants!
Here's one of the samples I produced for the course - short-row circle, two ways of attaching beads, shaping on the needles...
... and here's the very beautiful handmade pendant Caroline Amory, White House Arts' owner and artist in textiles, glass and all sorts of other things, gave me... isn't it gorgeous?
I did a little spinning - there's 88 grammes of this Jacob yarn, and about 100 metres... not the most evenly spun yarn in the world, but I'm reasonably pleased with it and keen to do some more at the weekend...
I also signed up for the Mystery Stole 3 KAL which starts on June 29 and have had fun sorting out yarn and beads for it...

Hiya,
I signed up for the Mystery Stole event, but then came to my senses before I got too engrossed! I'll just watch now!
Do you ever look at the Ripple-along blog, where everyone is crocheting a ripply blanket? That book of Jan's seems to be the new ripple bible, if one can say such a thing. http://neisripplealong.blogspot.com/
I have fallen in love with that sample and the picture of the room with all that bright knitting looks really inspirational. I've just bought myself a copy of Jan's Crochet Encyclopedia which I'm sure is going to be one of my most-often used books.
Yummy colours in the short-row circle. What yarn(s) is(are) that(those)?
Hello Liz,
Your blog is very beautiful and we will meet again on Mystery Stole 3
Have a good day
Agnès
That looks great! I bought the same exact yarn, same exact color... What size needles did you use?
