Look what I knitted!

Bless you ladies, but if I took you all up on it, I suspect I'd be knitting nothing else for years!

The problem is with the yarn actually. It really cost a lot, so I did them as one-off. If anyone wants a go though and they can find some wool, the pattern is VERY easy

You could see. You can get 2 pairs from one ball (of the lighter colour) I'd say, maybe 3/4 pairs from one darker ball.

Or, they look cute knitted up as bootees in different wool. I just loved the 'Uggness' though

Nah, a couple of evenings, and the sewing up was longer than the knit.

It's not hard at all, can't be if I can do it. It is a craft though, and takes time and patience to master. I find it wonderfully calming, my colleagues are always surprised that I'm so sunny in a stressful job and I think knitting is partly to help.

There's loads of books. 'Stitch and Bitch' is a good one. But if you're a visual learner you can't beat Youtube for instructional videos
