..... 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!)
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.
ReplyDeleteOooh that sounds lovely! I love a good charity shop find :) I think it's definitely relatively cheap, and with such wonderful results :)
DeleteOoooh beautiful yarny goodness, I love the colours, enjoy your wedding weekend xxxx

DeleteThe colours look amazing! Which brand is it?
ReplyDeleteYarn 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

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 :)
