a small project on the side...



In winter I bought 2 hanks of deliciously soft, super fine, dark charcoal 
2 ply baby alpaca...


 from the moment I spied it I've had 'ideas' of making myself 
a super soft, super fine, super light weight, lacy mini wrap


 In a couple of weeks time a dear dear friend is getting married 

I thought it would be nice to make myself a special something to wear...

(I couldn't find a pattern for what I could imagine - so I'm just going for it freeform!)



(I wonder if I'll get it finished in time?)


mmmmm the baby alpaca is soooooooooo lovely to snuggle against!


but even if I don't get my project finished in time - 
my girlie has been inpired and is discovering the joy of making things with bits of wool...



I love us sitting together - hook and wool in hand

it's a sweet special time
