Current customs list October 21, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — mrshalobaby @ 7:20 am

I’ve not updated for a while due to being very busy knitting, and the boys have both been unwell (why do they take it in turns? Can’t they just be poorly at the same time to get it over and done with?) Consequently, my customs list is running behind – huge apologies to everyone still waiting. We will get there in the end!

Heather – work in progress
Carley – deposit paid, awaiting superwash yarn
Jessica
Rox – deposit paid
Cara
Jennifer
Lizz – temporarily on hold
Carrie
Clemmie – deposit paid
Morag – deposit paid, yarn ordered, still waiting…

Cowboy! longies for Louise August 22, 2009

Filed under: Uncategorized — mrshalobaby @ 3:04 pm

Louises’ custom longies, in my own hand painted Cowboy! colourway. Ok, confession time now… this is the first time I have knitted up my one of my own dye jobs, so even I didn’t know how it would knit up. I am really pleased with how they look. I think they look a bit camo…

It is pretty rare these days for me to get time to make an item to go into the shop that isn’t a custom order, but I have managed to sneak this one in…

Buy British Month saw me taking lots of custom orders, some of which were collaborations with other wahms. Here is the Jimmy Riddles collab, and one with JellyNose Chic. I have also completed a kilt for Susannah.
