Great work Shelagh, beautiful!

applause applause!!! From the peanut gallery, clapping madly: Noreen's gone to bed now!

No fair! You and Dennis are tempting me way too much to do another heavily cabled number (I've been eyeing up an elaborate guernsey pattern in an old book of mine).

All I can say is, "WOW!!!!"

Well lets get a move on it VP and leave us a picture please.

Hugs & God bless, Dennis & Gail

Given how long the last one took it'll be years before pictures are available. I am keen but first some UFO busting needs ro be done. I've got half a glove to finish to make a pair, some mittens, some socks and a half done cardy on the needles - I really shouldn't cast on another project just yet. (And we won't begin to talk about the mounds of alpaca and merino that need washing and carding or the carded fibre waiting for spinning).

I'm trying to decide whether or not to try another one... but who for? DH would look great in one since he's 6 ft 1" tall and slim - 170 lbs. But that would be even bigger than the one I've done, and I'd have to buy yarn for it, couldn't do it out of stash. Maybe I should do one for one of my teddy bears. (snicker). I have a pattern. =8>D

A now defunct wool shop here used to make teddy bear jerseys as samples of the yarn they had for sale. All these teddy bears hung in front of the shelves of wool - very cute!

Go on - do one for teddy.

I second that. Dennis

You area Queen! Aud ;-)

That looks very intricate...

..and a lovely design, Shelagh. Well done!

Question: What pattern did you use for the balloon bag? I've been looking for something similar but haven't found a pattern I like enough to make.

Kim, I found the pattern at Knitting Central, where hundreds (thousands?) of free Internet patterns are listed. It's the first place I go if looking for a pattern.

Kim,

I had a wonderful package arrive, thank you.

You should have mail by now.

Thanks, Dennis

What's tinypic?

methinks that was meant as tinyurl but I could be wrong! JM2C, Noreen

(or as a wise man once said... once I thought I was wrong, but I was mistaken!)
