Good news

Joy of joys, my weaving was kind to me for the rest of the warp and I have ended up with a much bigger piece of fabric than I had hoped for. This therefore means that I have enough fabric for the original plan of a cushion. However, I don't want to put the other small piece to waste so I will cut a 5cm and a 3cm radius circle out of the fabric which will be needle felted onto the top corner of the cushion. The final touch to the cushion will be a medium sized dorset button in the blue yarn used in the weft to be put in the middle of the two circles.

The finished cushion
My three completed pieces now are the crocheted bag in multicoloured merino and jacob humbug, the felted wall hanging in finnish fleece and the cushion shown above.

The only item left is the scarf which was going to be knitted. However, the knitting wasn't going well it was holey and stiches were being dropped and picked back up. I have therefore decided that the scarf will be crocheted instead.  I enjoy crochet so much more, and so far it is going very well, much neater than the knitting and progressing much quicker.  It would appear I am not a knitter!!
Thats all for now
