I have recently returned to my knitting pleasure.

I wasn't going to knit again at this time as I have lots of other things to do. But when I was at the haberdashery shop (love going to that big store which gives me so many inspirations), and was about to pay for the little things I picked up, I noticed this pile of beautiful lavender and deep purple Sexy tuff sticking out from underneath all the other lovely coloured wool far in the distance. It was just calling me 'take me home, take me home!!', and I just couldn't resist taking 10 slings (?) of the supersoft Merino wool home with me (quite pricey I must admit ).

As I couldn't remember if I still had the super big knitting needles from yesteryear, I picked up a size 10 of them, and some super fat crochet needles as well in case I need to tidy the edges with crochet stitches.

Patterns .... who needs patterns Have knitted since I was nine and knitted all my dolly's clothes during summer school vacation. When I was a teenager, I organised a knitting competition with my friends, and I knitted one of those BIG jackets with a high collar, in very thick ivory coloured wool, but no pattern. It turned out really nice, and became my favourite jacket for spring, autumn and winter (I still have that jacket, hehe).

As soon as I got home with my new-found-love, I could hardly wait to roll up the slings into balls and start knitting. But the question was ... what to knit? I mean this IS the tropics, it's always hot and humid. I can't very well knit a pullover or a beret So I started off with 120 slings, thinking .... maybe I should knit an Afghan. I could use it when I lie in my massage chair, or when I have a siesta on Sundays . That would be nice.

Now I just hope that the knitting needles are long enough to hold 120 stitches, as the knitting is getting heavier with each row.

Will take a picture of it when it's completed and post it here for you to see.
