Rowan Membership
I went to Whitby on Saturday, had a look in Bobbins knitting shop with the intension of getting some Rowan 4 ply Soft, to use this months free sock pattern from Rowan, but they only had it in cold colours and I was hoping for something bit more warmer, but a little bit later I was just about walk past Boyes -a shop that sells a bit of everything- I remembered that they used to sell yarn. So in I went, and found, nothing to make socks with, but yarn to make the patchwork cushion.
Patchwork Cushion Yarn
I've made 3 patches of the cushion already, though I've only taken a photo of one. I'm liking the fact that because they are small pieces if I do something wrong I can rip it out and not be all that bothered.

In other news, while at Whitby my mum & dad bought me a beautiful Whitby Jet ring for my birthday. It's Jet at one side and plan silver at the other and I love it, so I thought I'd share it with you.

OMG, Boyes take me back into my memories of living back in England! I remember always spending my pocket money in there as a kid because I could get so much!
Froth Scarf sounds nice especially in KSH. You've got the perfect colour to go with some of your knits there too!
Hey there! Thanks for visiting my blog today. It looks like you and I have several project in common. I don't think I'll start the Light Blue Jacket for a few weeks, but I'll keep checking in here to see how your progress is going and we can have our own mini knit-along!
You've piqued my interest about the Rowan club. I might have to check that out... I adore the color of Kidsilk Haze you received.
I've just finished knitting the scarf kit from Rowan. It was really quick to knit but I didn't pick up enough stitches down one side so it didn't curl enough and had to re-do it. I was going to give it away but I like it so much I'll probably knit another one. Hope you enjoy yours when you get time to knit it (mine's in the turquoise/blue colour).
