Notes

January, 2013

Finished !
Angora is knitted using my BOND knitting machine, corrugated ribs (with nopes !) and grey lace are knitted by hand…


November 2010

Well, I’m going to continue this sweater, yeeeeees !
I’m just spinning some angora skeins to go on….if nobody buys them before I have time to dye ! lol


June 2010

Finally, I DON’T have enough wool…and now I have to wait my bunnies’ hair grow again, because they are nude as worms (yes, see the last picture of my sweet “Bunny” and laugh!) So I had to stop this sweater…


April 2010

The back and one sleeve are finished, and half the front too, but I’m short of angora wool ! I have to spin some to go on…and no time for the while ! ://


July 2009 : I’ve finished to spin the angora wool (100% angora, 2-ply) and I’m going to dye it in pale rose…
The pattern said 200g of angora yarn, but I spun about 350g to be sure I’ll have enough, considering the fact I’m not going to knit the lace grey plastron on the back of the sweat, as the model does, but ONLY on the front side.


I guess we can consider I have begun it, because for the moment…I SPIN, and SPIN, and SPIN… my angora wool, to make the better and lovelier yarn I can !

My poor rabbits are all nude ! lol lol

The spinning-wheel is hot, and I hope I’ll be able to begin to KNIT soon !!!


Ribs in Sirene and Caline, plastron in Sirene, and my angora yarn, in very pale pink.
