Fair Isle Socks link

Check out this link to Purly Whites. These are a pair of beautifully knitted Fair Isle socks from the book Folk Knitting in Estonia by Nancy Bush. I think I'm going to need to buy that book!

Abs - thanks for the comments over on Abulafia, thought I'd do the decent thing and return the favour! I'm amazed at the number of blogs I've come across to do with knitting....I seem to share a lot of interests in common with knitters - except knitting, unfortunately. I think I might have knitted a scarf when I was about 5yrs old, but there my burgeoning textiles career stalled...

Persevere with Foucault's Pendulum - it'll repay your patience, I promise. Baudolino is actually a much easier read, but just as enjoyable. It's also pretty funny, in a "knowingly intellectual" sort of way..!

I've also read Strange & Norrell - really enjoyed that too.

cheers, check back soon
