My new project.

Now I have started knitting a cardigan for my grandaughter.

The next picture is what the finished cardigan will be like, as I have already knitted this one for my other grandaughter.

This is the sweater which I have just finished knitting for my husband.  It is a sort of "Designer" knit, as I did not have any proper pattern to follow.  
The basic pattern is 7 and 1 stitch which makes the down stripes.  This was taken from an old 1950's knitting book...for a sleeveless pullover which was a 7 and 2 stitch. 
Therefore I had to make up the sleeves and shaping for them. 
It is not excellent, but my husband likes it.

Some more of my macrame creations.

Square knotting with beads

Square knotting with added cross overs.

None of this is perfect yet, as I have only been learning and attempting Macrame for a few weeks.

Knitting and Macrame have now become my new pastimes.
