Easter Eggs



Jars full of dye, originally uploaded by girl from finito.
I have never been so on top of things. This year I have finished 5 eggs! .. I managed to finish off the last two yesterday while I was waiting to go to the vet.

I'm not entirely pleased with how the first 3 came out.. all on brown eggs.

The last two turned out well..I can't believe I had never done a 48 triangle egg before

My friend Ayalah even came over and made one too! I love this. She's defiantly inspired me to do a non-geometric design.

Happy St.Patricks Day

Cinnamon roooooollllls



Cinnamon roooooollllls, originally uploaded by girl from finito.
Been doing more baking and cooking as of late. These have been made twice. They are really good and - learning to be a bit more patient - they have risen and worked out really nicely. ahhhh hot fresh cinnamon buns. lovely. They have one extra step which makes them a bit more unique than others - when you roll out the dough you fold in a layer of cream cheese and then re-roll.. oooh so tasty.
The recipe come from Saveur magazine.. yum!

spring's progress



well it is not quick but it is starting to look like a scarf .... and a pretty airy one at that. having this done for copenhagen might be a push. but i'll keep at it

the dropped stitch details are quite lovely -
