Last week I had the amazing luck of coming across a metre of Nani Iro at the op shop for a few dollars -and it has the sweet name of Melody Sketch. The fabric was rolled up and fastened with string and I had no idea it was lovely double-gauze until I got home.
I'm thinking of using it to make some pillowcases (maybe like these or this one) when the weekend arrives.
And even though I have three unfinished projects in my knitting basket I had to cast on another: this is the first bit of a blanket I'm making from the 'freeform knitted throw' pattern in Lena Corwin's Made by Hand. I thought it could be a nice long-term project to utilise all the yarn leftovers I can find around the place. And seed stitch with big straight needles is quite possibly the most enjoyable knitting there is.
I've been enjoying this favourite album on the headphones lately: Two Suns by Bat for Lashes (especially love this track). Perfect for walking to work through the streets of Wellington in the cool autumn air.
