A late MS3 Clue #2, and come join a contest

I was trying to keep my MS3 updates on Fridays, but I ran out of time on Friday and didn’t end up finishing my Clue #2 until today.

Link to big sized picture

This is a relatively bad picture because I wanted to have a dark background to show the lace pattern. I’ll probably take some more outside pics at a later time. If you click through to my flickr page, you can see where the beads are, they’re clear and don’t photograph very well.

About the contest, Heathen Housewife also known as Shelly Kang, is hosting a contest for Victorian Lace Today and some beautiful white laceweight merino, that she’s willing to dye to any colours you’d like. Go there and put a comment on her blog, and please please tell her I sent you because then you’ll help me get another entry (if you post this link to your blog and get people to enter through it you’ll get more entries too!)

I’ll try and post some pretty sock wip pictures tomorrow.

Till next time.

Prettifying things

So I’ve now got a pretty header and my blog is more than just the default. Not sure how much I like the image though, I may take some pictures of my knitting to make a series of headers that I change on a regular basis.

This current one though, shows my two favourite hobbies, Costuming, and Knitting. This picture was actually submitted to the first Knitty Calendar but wasn’t chosen (probably because cramming a bunch of yarn into your bedroom isn’t a very good backdrop).

I think that’s it. I hope to get some more knitterly stuff up soon. I’m trying to get pictures and things uploaded so that I can get everything up on Ravelry. We’ll see how I do.

Hello knitting world!

My name is Saff, and I like to knit!

I can’t guarantee consistent blogging, but I’ll probably update this everytime I want to update my ravelry account.

I’ll do a proper introduction post later. It’s just nice to have something up here.
