Tilted Duster is finished!

Finally, buttons found, approved of, sewn on and ...voila'!



After much thought, I opted for non-green buttons. These, which I found at John Lewis, were just right - and they were reduced in price as well!
Shame about the quality of the picture...the yarn is a nice green, but my camera seems to have an adversion to green. I might try and take a picture of the jacket outdoors, but in order to do that I must wait for this strong wind that is visiting Nottingham to stop.

Nosey Wednesday

I cannot hold a contest with the title "Guess whose nose this is?" as it is pretty obvious... take out the camera and she must see what I am up to!
She is back to normal with me, enjoying cuddles and running like the wind when there's the smell of banana in the air. Recently, I was on the floor winding up a ball of yarn, and she could not have cared less. I am glad to see that she doesn't plan to shred my knitted work!

Talking of knitting, I have almost finished the Tilted Duster for my youngest sister, while the DROPS jacket for my other sister is ready to be mailed:



I particularly like the buttons, which I found in a haberdashery shop in Cagliari:



All the details of the jacket are on Ravelry if you are a registered raveller, otherwise you can find the pattern here.
And now, if you excuse me, I am going to prepare the dinner for the bunnies, and then cast on for the sleeves of the Tilted Duster...
