Hello! And Welcome to Wool on Sundays – 15. I really don’t know how the weeks fly by so fast. I’ve been doing a little knitting but it’s nothing much to look at yet and my pursuit of the perfect circle has continued with another attempt at a round cushion. I almost decided to stick with the unintended octagon but I think I just about pulled it back at the end…
…and I’ve made the Frilly Flower from last week into a cushion, although that was actually a sewing exercise, rather than a yarn one.
But then, the other day, I came across a great chart at handwerkjuffie so I’m hoping my days of improv increasing are over…
Do you have any yarn projects to share, this week?
I’d love you to link up with WOOL ON SUNDAYS. The rules as usual are:
1). Posts must include some content – makes or musings – related to knitting, crochet, felting, spinning or yarn.
2). Projects sewn from felt or wool fabric or stitchery using wool are also welcome but please don’t link posts that are exclusively about sewing, quilting and fabrics.
3). Posts don’t have to be from the past week but please put a link to WOOL ON SUNDAYS or grab the button from my sidebar and include it in or at the bottom of any posts you link up.
4). Visit anyone else who links.
Wishing you a happy week :)

For your perfect circle you have to persuade that yarn, and your tensions to be perfect, and be very clever indeed! What you have looks pretty good, but the octagon would have been just as good- only, not a circle?? Loving your colours too.

I kind of like the unintended octagon. All you have to do is tell us it was on purpose and we will all think you are a genius!! :)
I like your wool series. Something different is cool.

I really like how you made the octagon into a circle.. Looks beautiful.
I'm in between projects. I can't decide what to start next. Your cushions have inspired me to do something bold and colorful. ;)

I think a circle set into an octagon set into a circle must be *really* hard to do, well done!!!!

Love the layer of colors on the frilly cushion and I like the unintended octagon!! I look forward to seeing the finish. By the way, why do sleeves take so long to knit? It feels like forever :)

I wanted to thank you for commenting on my quilt design and come over and see your blog. Your projects are lovely! It is nice to have a hand work project for times when I sit at ball games for my kids. I have not crocheted in awhile, but I recently learned how to knit. I made a few scarves these last couple of winters.
Thanks again for stopping by.
