My Creative Space

My creative space lately, unsatisfactory though it feels, has been all about this gorgeous book by Zoe Mellor.


I borrowed it from the library a couple of weeks ago and I renewed it last week.

I absolutely love it ... and this is my favourite pattern.


I made a pair in a variegated purple/blue pattern but it looks too boyish and doesn't show the gorgeous moss pattern enough.

So yesterday I went out and grabbed some red yarn and I knitted up the first slipper last night. It looks fabulous and I can't wait to finish its partner in crime tonight.

Maybe I'll even be organised enough, and my computer re-installed and next week I'll be able to share what I've been up to).

(Yesterday I found out little Baby H is due at the end of the month. A little breathing space to get my fingers flying about.)

What's your creative space full of? Are you on a mission or slow and steady? kootoyoo's the space it's happening ...
