Hand Knitted Botanical Lace Shawl
Hand Knitted Botanical Lace Shawl for self, made with Juniper Moon Farm Findley Extrafine Merino Wool & Mulberry Silk Blend in colours tamarindspirit & chocochino
Took me 232 hours approximately over the last 2 months to knit. Very happy with how it turned out. Very soft, cozy, warm & comfortable.
Original pattern Botanical Lace Wrap by Purl Soho designer Jake Canton. Changed the yarn, knitting needle size & doubled the pattern repeats to make it a Shawl instead of a wrap.

Knitted Balaclavas & Crochet Heads
Knitted Balaclavas & Crochet Heads Custom-made for a client. The top row shows the drawings from the client with slight variations made as I went along to implement them in the final product. The black & white diamond balaclava underwent the maximum change as can be seen in the 3rd picture.
Knitted Balaclavas made for client in February this year. The top row shows his drawings & the bottom two my work. Had to chart the pattern on graph paper & do.. was fun to work out the exact placement of eye holes, wonky nose, wonky face 😊. Made with stylecraft life dk yarn (25% wool & 75% premium acrylic)
