Pretty Socks & a New Book

I've so enjoyed knitting these socks so far - pretty yarn and great pattern! The yarn is by Knitcola, a NZ yarn, and the pattern is the Drippity Drop Socks by Kay F Jones. I'm hoping to have these finished soon as I'm planning to cast on a shawl at the start of July. 



I received a lovely surprise in the mail late last week from Kath, a belated birthday present!


This is Gail Pan's latest stitchery book and it is filled with lots of gorgeous patterns. Some of the ladies I work with have purchased the book too so we thought we might have a little stitch along over the next few months.

Also, for those asking on my last post, the tutorial I followed to make the vinyl zippered bags is by Calico. They are heaps of fun to make!

See you soon xx
