…this week, finds me twiddling my thumbs. Having finished the pink vesty thing, I am now trawling around for my next knitting project – joining Rav was perhaps not the best idea I’ve ever had… so many things I’d love to make! How to decide..?!
So for now, while I mull over the plethora of choices, I am content to flick through a pretty great book that landed on the doorstep a couple of days ago.
I’ll be honest & say I didn’t really know what I was buying when I ordered Naughty Needles online – all I knew is that it seemed like everyone who bought it loved it & it was DIFFERENT. Well… different it certainly is, and fun, and funny, and naughty is certainly the appropriate word…
I can’t see me actually making a single thing out of this – well, maybe the cape, when I am all expert-knitty & down with the kids, but I like that I own it all the same, it has a cheesecake pinup quality that had me at hello.
If you want to share your Creative Space with us all head over to Kirsty’s & share away!

ReplyDeleteIt looks quite similar to what you have made for the little miss, PLUS it has elephants on it!!! Yay!
LOVE IT! That cape does look great, you must give that a go!
ReplyDeleteCool book - I am immediately drawn to books that are a bit left of centre. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteJust checking out today's Creative Spaces through Kirsty's.
ReplyDeleteOoohh! I'd say definitely have a go at the Naughty Needles book! Never seen a book like that before, and it is winter now - some woolie undies may be the way to go! He He!!
I would love to see the results if you ever do make up a 'naughty knit' - the set on the front of the book looks really cool! And the owls are cute and maybe achievable even for me (a very basic knitter).
ReplyDeleteI am sure you will find something to make your own in there..What a fun book..:)
ReplyDeleteDon't let Ravelry overwhelm you just take it one thing at a time...I know easier said then done.
the cape is a must have i say
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fab book Vic. A naughty knitting book. Is that knitters' porn?
ReplyDeleteThe cape is a definite go...
ReplyDeleteThat book looks like alot of fun, I'd go with the cape too.
ReplyDeletethe cape is a bit fab isn't it, but I love the critters!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hoot! Of course I like the owls the most. I find knitting overwhelming and thats why im doing none.
ReplyDelete:) noticed that you had appeared on Rav - addictive and dangerous site that is - have you peeked at my que and lets not mention the favourites - there are not enough hours in the day - a shame sleep is required to function and stay alive.
