Another FO and a sweet surprise
Wristwarmers to keep my hands toasty on a cold day .
For the remaining of the World Cup knitalong, i made a pair of wristwarmers. So that makes 2 FOs for the WC kal! What an accomplishment!
Pattern: My own ( knit the borders, stockinette stitch for the body)
Receiver: For myself
Yarn: 1 ball of 50 grams Filatura Di Crosa 'Love'
Needles: 4.5 mm & 4.5 dpns
Gauge: None
Time taken: 7 July- 10 July
Look what i receive from my dear friend, a very much desired Rowan no. 37 ! I know it is a quite a dated issue but i simply love it. If there is any Rowan knitting i would like to purchase, it would be this. It boasts at least 5 beautiful patterns that i will definitely knit.
Am i a lucky girl or what? Hence, i am going to knit 'Butterfly' for her.
For
example, these are some of the finalists.. 
Does the bag rings a bell ? It is 'Heirloom' bag ! This book is full of feminine, soft vintage style. Now, if you would excuse me, i need some time to organise my stash :)

I know exactly how you feel... I'm always excited about pattern books. I just ordered some back issues of IK and I just can't wait to get my paws on them!!
Congrats on your TWO FO for the world cup!!!!! I love your wrist warmers!!!!!!!
This is a pretty issue of Rowan. Sometimes I take a while before I decide whether to buy an issue, no hurry right?
Those are fun wristwarmers! I need to knit a pair for myself.
Oh I love browsing knitting magazines, it's one of my favorite things to do.
I love that issue of rowan. Such pretty patterns!
Oh, you young people, something that is from last year is dated! ;) It's a very good issue, I save all of them, and I am actually working on Elspeth from it at the moment (it has some problems). You sure are a very good friend to knit Butterfly for your friend, she will love it!!!
