I have finished knitting all the pieces for Wildfell. I had a hiccup with the pattern for the sleeves but after chatting it through with a couple of Rowanettes and emailing Jane Ellison I got to grips with them.
Here is a pile of knitted pieces waiting to be sewn together.
Wildfell pieces
This is one long cardigan so lots of mattress stitch but I am kind of feeling like it will be worth it. I have really got to like Wildfell whilst I have been knitting her.
Life is very busy at the moment so my knitting time has been light.
I was away last week-end in Brussels - my first trip on the Eurostar. This was an office trip and we had fun! Late nights did of course feature! Jane went to Brussels - she kept me warm. This cardigan is from A Yorkshire fable and is knitted in Rowan Yorkshire Tweed.

I cast on a pair of socks to take with me - a good portable project that doesn't take up much room in ones luggage and is light to carry around whilst doing the tourist bit.
Regia socks
I am knitting these in Mini Ringels 4 ply shade 05211 Blue Sea.
Tomorrow I am off to a Gala Dinner and I think "Birch" is going to make her debut around my shoulders - the perfect accessory for a black dress.
Hi Anna
Can't wait to see it sewn up! Seems every time I visit here,you've finished another cardigan or jumper! Is this 'light' knitting?
Brussels is something that we keep meaning to do (how close can you get to eurostar? We're 20 mins away!) but haven't go around to yet.
Dawn :)
