Star fish which I believe are destined to be part of the planned yarn bombing in Hull.
The pattern makes the two lower sizes but I faffed about and knitted one a bit larger too.
The bottom right is double knit cotton but the other two are an acrylic with a fine white cotton slubby thread running through it.
Since the knitting needs to be completed before the months end, my hexis have been put aside for now.
Since I am finally working only 3 days a week now - yeahhh!
I came home yesterday afternoon and sat out back in the delightful sun and knitted several star fish arms.
As I sat there a blackbird sang away above me and way over to my left a cuckoo gave a rally of cuckoo-ing!
Talk about Nature lifting your spirits - it was lovely.
Then blow me I noticed one loan house martin swooping around in the Oh So Blue sky - it seems Summer really is here up North!
( fingers crossed it doesn't snow next week!!)
Those star fish are fabulous:)
