question of the week number 4!

from kingofthefrogs

What is your favourite thing that you have knit? The thing I most enjoyed knitting was a hat from Jaeger Roma. I got the yarn in a swap and it was so soft and yummy that I had to make it into something right away! it was supposed to be a slouchy beret type hat, turned out as a beanie but i don't mind its still a lovely soft hat to wear, and i think its pretty

What are your favourite knitblogs? hmm i've been trying out knit blogs and i'm not really amazed by any! i prefer online comics like dinosaur comics

What is the most amazing knitted thing you have seen?
Well i've seen some pretty intricate things knitted and appreciate the time and effort that went into them. but if they're ugly then it seems a bit of a waste, and a lot of them are. i like things that are simple but pretty :-) or that look harder than they actually are!

What is your favourite knitted item to wear? Post a picture if you can.

at the moment, it is the aforementioned hat:



i went to look through my flickr at my FOs and realised I'm not very good at making jumpers i like wearing. partly because i always make them out of wool and then have to wear long sleeve tops underneath cos i itch, and then its never quite cold enough to wear them! oops. i've got a cardigan waiting to be made out of (guess what!) jaeger roma though, and a something to be made out of colinette point 5 which i am deliberately designing to let some heat out, so that hopefully i can wear it!


realised as i was writing this that i haven't really answered half the questions! ah well such is life!
