Welcome


Hello, my name is Dionne and I have been crafting for a very long time. As a very young child my mother tried to teach me to knit, it was a disaster. However, it must have sparked an interest in making things and, partly to prove that I was not totally useless and partly because I really wanted to make things, I taught myself to crochet. Over the years I have developed a love of cross stitch and all types of paper craft ..... I eventually even taught myself to knit.


I am married to a very understanding man, thank goodness, because I spend all my time either crafting, thinking about crafting or talking about crafting. I am hopeless at housework and dinner is often late!


Thank you for visiting my blog.

Lilac and Lemon Speckled Cardigan

How are you today?  I hope you are well and full of get up and go.

I have another cardigan made in King Cole Cherish Double Knit to show you today.  The yarn has a lilac, lime and blue fleck on a white background, 


You cannot see the yarn very clearly in this photograph, so I also took one in close-up.


The pattern is Stylecraft 4909.

Have a good day.


Dionne

  1. Love the beautiful wool but the buttons look all the same colour to me?

    1. Opps sorry Carol. My mistake, it was not this cardie which I mixed up the button colours on, it was the pink and lilac coloured cardigan I posted on 4 February.

      My apologies.

  2. I love this colour combination, perfect for spring and using different coloured buttons is inspired. I definitely need a cardi with those! Xxx

    1. Thank you Lisette. It's a close sall but I think I prefer the speckle to the multi striped yarn.

      I received a REALLY big bag of yarn this morning which I bought in the sales and some new patterns. Some little girl is going to be very happy because most of it is glittery.
