Recently Finished Projects (most recent to oldest):

Cady's Xmas Curly Purly Soaker



This was knit using the curly purly pattern and 100g of JJ Lucinda 12 ply in the Yule Log colourway. I knit it using 3mm and 4mm needles for the waistband and 5mm needles for the body.

Splish Splash Snapdragon Soaker

Stripey Culy Purly

This was knit using the curly purly pattern and of JJ Lucinda 12 ply in the Yule Log colourway. I knit it using 3mm and 4mm needles for the waistband and 5mm needles for the body.

On the Needles:

Treliske LTK soaker

This was knit using the LTK original soaker pattern. I used treliske I had in light purple, dark purple and natural colours and 3mm and 4mm needles. I really wanted to try and get the hang of doing stipes when knitting in the round. I think I managed to do it pretty well in this one. All I have left to do is the leg cuffs.
