This makes the wee man seem like Gulliver in Lilliput by comparison. In other news, for any of you about Longford on Culture Night, my sister and father and myself along with three others will be showing some work as part of the Engage Longford group show. I'll attempt to document it here after friday. In the meantime, back to dealing with poo.

The design originally came from an agricultural tool and the flail was used for bashing people hiding behind their shields. It is written as an abbreviated pattern with all abbreviations included.

Sign up to receive news. Saturday, September 25, 2010. The days are getting colder here, and the nights even more so. Autumn has arrived and my feet are cold!

You could also download a PDF of it from here:. A = Grey, B = Brown, C = White. CO – Cast on. St/t – stitch/stitches. K – knit. Rnd/s – round/rounds. RS –...

Join to work in round as follows:. Change colour and knit 8 rounds.
