On My Needles

Judi2 is working hard at modelling the aran jumper I have just started. I was going to dye this yarn until I saw this pattern that my sister found. It had to be aran colour for the aran jumper. It's blue faced leicester which I bought in 'Skeins' in Glossop the other week. Its very soft and knitting up beautifully, my sister is also knitting it but in brown bfl. Although this should be a quick knit I'm going to have to abandon it for a couple of weeks soon as I'm off to Shetland, I'll need some socks to knit because this will just be too big to pack.

What To Do With This!

Isn't it gorgeous! This is the first skein of my club yarn for the Great British Wool Club. It is a 50/50 mix of British Blue-Faced Leicester and Exmoor Blue-Faced. The next skein will be 50/50 Blue-Faced Leicester and something else, I have to wait and see but the colour will compliment this one. So dilemma - what to make? Should I wait to get the other skeins and make something like a blanket or should I make socks or a shawl or a hat or what??
