Knit one...

I've just finished another top. The pattern is Stylecraft 9929, really easy to make and very "stylish". The pattern calls for Grace Aran wool, but I actually used Grange Ten 10 ply, which is abailable locally. It is 40% wool, 40% acrylic and 20% alpaca. This is a photo of the work in progress:
There are some knitting vlogs I've been following on YouTube. The first is a knitwear designer from Finland: she seems to knit day in, day out (but I suppose they need a lot of sweaters up there!). She writes under Kutovakika. 

 The second lives in rural South Wales on the edge of a National Park. She vlogs on many kinds of craft as well as knitting. She writes under Katie Green Bean. 

 It's been unseasonably hot in Perth for the last few days. The only thing to do in the afternoon is to pull down the blinds, turn on the aircon and knit.
