Miss E's Wool-Eater... FINISHED!

This afternoon I finished the wool-eater pattern that I have been working on. I'm soooo pleased with how it turned out and I've already purchased some more yarn ready to make another one!

Thanks to Jodie who thankfully got me out of a pickle when I made a bit of a mistake in the pattern helped to save this little project!!


My next wool-eater I'm sure will turn out even better than this one (now that I've worked out my mistakes! lol).



I'd definitely recommend this pattern!

It's cooling down here at home now that the sun is slowly setting on what was a beautiful Sunday, I am about to hit the uni study books (in preparation for another set of exams in 2 weeks!!)

I've also FINALLY started on Roger's knitted headband!! Hoorah!

Ever since I started crochet classes and got back into some crafty goodness I've been promising Rog that I'd make him something so I thought I'd better get a wriggle on a start a little something for him! I'll upload some more pics when I have a bit more of the body of the headband done (currently its only 2 rows of knitted ribbing on my needles!! lol)

Happy Sunday! Ellie x

Miss E's Wool-Eater...WIP

This week I have been working on the Wool-eater pattern that I mentioned in my last post by Sarah London.





It looks a little funny at the moment with a few threads here and there that need to be sewn in and it hasn't fully taken shape just yet!

I love this pattern, the finished product looks excellent and has an almost "3D" look. I'm making this wool eater for our coffee table at home.


So far I haven't finished the pattern and need to do maybe 1 or 2 more rounds until its done. I think I've made a small mistake in the pattern somewhere but I'm working through it to make sure it still looks right!!





I'll definitely make another one of these using a different combo of colours and maybe a different type of yarn to get a slightly different texture.

What do you think?? Have you found a great pattern for a table centre piece? I'd love to hear if you have!
