kneedly knots: Danseys Pass
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2014/10/danseys-pass.html
Friday, October 31, 2014. It's been a very trying few months culminating in our discovery that most of what the builder has done is illegal or wrong or both. And he has run through pretty much all our money too so there is a mountain to climb to get this place liveable again. I might add that the builder in question is registered and came with references from previous jobs that we spoke to personally. So much for that! We will be able to finish the bathroom but the kitchen is doomed. The bridge at Ophir.

kneedly knots: Free Angel Pattern
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2013/12/free-angel-pattern.html
Sunday, December 15, 2013. This is the pattern I made for christmas some years back. It is not commercial so some of the stitching is averaged out. Two colours of yarn (dress and arms). A pair of appropriate sized needles for your yarn. A foot of fancy thread for hanging and a small bell or bead. A small wooden bead (preferably not varnished) for the head. Fluff for hair (I use unspun washed wool). Cast on 4 stitches. Row 1- k1,yarn over, k2 tog, yarn over, k1. Row 3- sl1, k1, yarn over, k2 tog, k1.

kneedly knots: school/build update
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2015/03/schoolbuild-update.html
Tuesday, March 24, 2015. I'm hard at it back at art school with things to think about, things to make and things to write. It's all great - should have come back here several years ago :). I have to say that the council have been very good so far. So has the new architect and the new builder but we are limited in what we can do because there is no more money. Matt reckons it will take at least 2 years to fix things - I think it looks more like 10. Who knows when that will happen! Posted by knutty knitter.

kneedly knots: Horse Trough
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2013/09/horse-trough.html
Sunday, September 15, 2013. A local group of us might have added something this winter to a local landmark - we thought it looked a little cold :). Unfortunately someone pinched this about three days later. Shame after all that hard work. Posted by knutty knitter. The selfishness of people who will pinch this kind of thing never ceases to amaze me. September 18, 2013 at 12:56 AM. Tania @ Out Back. Your group did a fantastic job with this project. Lucky you have photos to look back on and remember :).

kneedly knots: Renovations continued
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2014/07/renovations-continued.html
Monday, July 14, 2014. The mattress was in the living room while we did our bedroom. The living room then had to hold the stuff from the kitchen and laundry including the linen. The bedroom had the base and that was all. It is now painted and carpeted and stacked with stuff from other parts of the house. The kitchen was intact at this point although half the bedroom ended up in there along with all the laundry. The overflow from the storage shelves in the laundry ended up in William's present room.

kneedly knots: Taiaroa Head
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2013/06/taiaroa-head.html
Sunday, June 9, 2013. This was a trip we did down to the albatross colony. A friend runs a tourist boat and took us for a run round the rocks. He was able to get very close in because the water goes straight down here. It was a bit unnerving to be within a few feet of the rocks but we got good views as a result despite the fog. This was heading out to the rocks. More cliffs with bull kelp. Lots of bull kelp! Weird rock forms (basalt mostly) worn by the sea. The jetty is just out of view. Grew up in the c...

kneedly knots: Renovations
http://kneedlyknots.blogspot.com/2014/05/renovations.html
Monday, May 26, 2014. This is just to say I am still alive here but we are in the middle of some major renovations and it is now snowing/hailing/raining and very cold. Have you ever tried to get half your house contents to fit in the other half? We don't have a handy garage here) Including the linen and all the tools and the kitchen? It's amazing what you can get under a table too and then, of course, you can't find anything useful ever again! Posted by knutty knitter. June 6, 2014 at 9:03 AM. Dornob Des...
