I was naughty....

..... my final parting gift to myself from Berlin....


I love the colours, I love the texture, I love the wool I'm thinking cushion covers, granny square projects, and many others!

I'm flying back to London later, where C will pick me up in Bonnie and we will make our way down to Cornwall for a wedding on Saturday. No peace for the wicked ;)

Farewell Berlin, it was wonderful (as always!)

  1. Lovely fresh colours. Of course you couldn't resist. I was naughty today as well. I found 450g of pure wool Aran for £4.50 in a charity shop. It is a lovely teal colour and just right for adding to a blanket I am planning to start soon. I actually think knitting is quite a cheap hobby when you compare it to others like photography etc.

  5. The colours look amazing! Which brand is it?

    Yarn is the best thing to bring home when you travel! I returned from Canada today and there are heaps of yarn balls in my backpack...

    Take care

    1. Eeeek I can'[t remember the brand, the name was 'shhhhh' or somehting, I've left it in the stash at my parents for now but will check and report back :) It is such a great souvenir, and whatever you make will always remind you of your time in Canada :)
