scarybexOn the knitting front, as I haven't posted about that in a while (mainly because I am still trying to finish my 'epic jumper of doom' and have decided I hate long projects).
I have become fascinated with the lovely home spun wools that you can buy online. This is stuff spun from raw materials on a wheel and mixed together, and hand dyed to create really artistic raw materials! Obviously the side effect of it being labour intensive is a higher price, which is a bit prohibitive for me to be buying often. I shall give you some examples of things I'm liking (interesting if you like pretty things or are a bit arty/crafty minded)
Gothic knitting stuff
Swiss wool
wild strawberries
Cooking insired
Seashore
