And men's jumpers take a long time to knit, so you must be extraordinarily fast! It looks lovely, what I can see of it in the photo, I'm sure it will get a very emotional reception. <br />The blanket looks gorgeous, I do love all the different patterns you've used, and it all looks perfect as a whole, beautiful, well done!<br />Love Vanessa xxx (do you mind if i knit)vanessahttp://doyoumindifiknit.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080816235590144089.post-50503362205435078192009-10-08T15:36:03.902+01:002009-10-08T15:36:03.902+01:00Well done for getting that jumper finished.

Wool just seems much more natural and a good use of a resource that might otherwise go to waste. <br /><br />Just because something can be made out of bamboo (and it seems now that there's very little that can't) it doesn't mean that it should. Especially if that means increased land being given over to growing it and processing it when facilities already exist to process wool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080816235590144089.post-3619435518623440872009-10-08T14:07:06.442+01:002009-10-08T14:07:06.442+01:00I bet your needles go 100mph!!!!

The v-neck pullover is fantastic--and heirloom indeed. It's going to be a favorite to-wear for a long time--well done! The squares/blanket is lovely...that will be keeping some knees happy and warm. :o) LOVE the yarn for those socks you have in progress--jewel-bright colors! I do wish I were better at sock knitting, but I'm hopeless...LOL! I have a bamboo yarn for a cardi to knit of myself. I've not tried it yet though... I've heard mixed feeling about bamboo & bamboo blends too. For socks wool or alpaca does seem best.

I used the very same yarn for a 'little person' cardigan a while back and although the colours are very pretty, it does split and just doesn't feel as good to work with. It's making a very pretty pair of socks though!

I hope it fitted the bill! I have a couple of balls of Happy in my stash. I was induced by the colours to buy them, but so far have not got round to knitting them. I wonder whether the yarn would suit a scarf or shawl better? I agree, there's nothing like wool for socks!josiekittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15785710144572421726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8080816235590144089.post-45721247909568577042009-10-06T16:01:54.737+01:002009-10-06T16:01:54.737+01:00I am appreciative of anyone who knits on four need...I am appreciative of anyone who knits on four needles, I don't have the patience to be faffing with moving needles, so all my socks are done on two needles.
