Knitting up a Storm

Its been a busy week. My company merged with another large company. Thursday was the first day. In the evening was the offical start and a small party was arranged for all staff.

During the week recieved this stunning ATC from Pam. This is part of a shape lottery ATC exchange organised within a textile group I belong to.
As you can see the shape was a keyhole .... The photo does not give you a real impression of the texture.

Also during this week started to look at jumpers again due to my sister who pointed out that the Colinette had revamped their web site. http://www.colinette.co.uk/

I ended up buying the wool and needles to knit a jumper for me ..=)
It was so quick. The package was with me by Thursday. So due to the party I did not start until Friday.

The wool arrives in hanks so they have to rolled into balls first. But so far I have already knitted the back.
OK - for those who understand these things. Its knitted in size 10 pins. I am using wooden ones which I perfer. I knit on LONG pins as I have to have the right hand one tucked under my arm. Already start the front.

Other good news, the first shots from my potatoes have appeared today =) Will not be long now before I have to start soiling them up.
