And I&#8217;m busy working on the second and third installments.
 
I became an auntie! She was a wee bit early (6 weeks) but she&#8217;s done very well and was able to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Camp was great! Lots of knitting time but my actual output was small - this twined knitting lark is tough going. And because I&#8217;m that kind of difficult person I decided to jump in the deep end by twining with two colours - four ends, twisting, concentration and very slow knitting ensued. My two colour [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This weekend I&#8217;m off to &#8220;Knitting Camp&#8221; for some exploration of Twined Knitting. It&#8217;s forecast to rain all weekend here so it seems an ideal weekend to huddle inside playing with yarn. The company will be superb and I can be all knit-geeky without getting strange looks from non-fibre obsessed individuals.

 
I&#8217;ve dyed up some z-twist [...]]]></description>

For many years my day job had been teaching at the local university but at the end of last year I decided to throw caution [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I do a little lace knitting and I&#8217;d read stuff by American knitters which referred to &#8220;blocking wires&#8221;. When I investigated this further it seemed like a way to ease the pain of blocking with just pins. The wires sold specifically to knitters for blocking seemed quite pricey and I&#8217;d read things about people using [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When I started spinning I did so on an old Ashford Traditional I had inherited from my grandmother. It is a 1960s model and showing its age. It works fine enough but is clunky and scotch tension only (which on the Ashfords is a fiddly system requiring constant adjustment in my experience). 
As I became a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve seen adverts for this little booklet many times in vintage magazines and I&#8217;ve finally managed to get hold of my own copy.
  
It&#8217;s delightful. One of my favorite sections is on towels:
&#8220;Leave all the washing up, particularly china, to drain instead of drying it, so as to save wear on your tea towels. &#8230;

		<description><![CDATA[I totally get the irony of posting about being a bad blogger in January and then totally failing to post anything in February. Sigh.  
I purchased another spinning wheel recently unfortunately it&#8217;s in Rangiora and I&#8217;m in Dunedin. I&#8217;m trying to work on a way to get it to me without too much cost being incurred. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I realised this morning that if I don&#8217;t post something today that I won&#8217;t have posted anything at all this month and I&#8217;m sure that would make me a very bad blogger indeed. I have not been neglecting the site (despite external evidence to the contrary). I&#8217;m running out of space with my hosting package [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had a few queries about the pattern for the lace and bead scarf I made mum. I won&#8217;t release the whole pattern because it was a special present and I like to think of it as unique.

Michelle asked if I could tell her the name of the &#8220;upside down heart diamond&#8221; pattern (pictured above) [...]]]></description>
