The Blue Dreambird

I have finished my blue Dreambird shawl and I’m so pleased with it!
It’s knitted with my hand-dyed 4ply merino/silk/nylon.
I like the feel of it, it’s quite firm and it's got a nice weight to it.

I LOVE my new shawl!

Happy-go-knitty Rainbow

I'm very pleased with the new Happy-go-knitty Rainbow range!

I'm going to KAN (Knit August Night) in Napier next Thursday for a 3 day long knitters retreat. The rainbow yarn I have got at the moment is for taking to KAN. Feedback on facebook on this yarn was amazing with lots of requests so I have started a booking list for the next dye lot. Feel free to contact me if you would like to pre-book some yarn. In the next dye lot I will probably make kits of BFL and alpaca/silk as well.

Alpaca sock yarn

I have started skeining all the alpaca/merino sock yarn from the post below. This yarn is so lovely!

Some typical Happy-go-knitty colours
















 And some a bit different. What do you reckon? Do you like them?
