Here's a nice idea

Jan 05, 2009 13:04

... I will send a handmade gift to the first 3 (or possibly more if the mood takes) people who leave a comment here on my LJ. (idea nicked from sarah_mumI'm not altogether sure what it'll be - a lot of my knitting projects seem to take me forever, but if you don't mind waiting, then that's an option, e.g. socks. I can do basic crochet, I've got some ( Read more... )

Um...actually...could I pay you some money for some fingerless mittens? I really want some purple and blue ones but I've only ever found the pair I've currently got which are b & w. Could you do? I don't want them for free because that seems wrong when I'm specifying what. If you don't have time, is there anyone else I could ask, do you know?

I can do them, no probs! Can you show me what you have at present, or what sort of thing you're after? E.g. right now I'm making some out of kid angora-type yarn, in a lacy pattern, but you may want wool and stripes. Show me a pic :-)

Re: payment. Hmmm. The idea was not to pay, but I guess I wouldn't whinge if you could cover the cost of the yarn, as right now I R poor.

I'll post a pic tonight. They've got fancy patterns on them, but just plain blue and purple stripes in a similarish wool would be awesome. They're also quite closely knit, but machine done, so again will need to be different.

I can paypal or bank transfer costs for sure. Wicked, I've been meaning to ask someone about this for months now.

I'm really sorry, been away then lurgified.

Palm side up of mitten - Right hand side is where fingers poke out, black square is for thumb. Describing these just in text would have been hard for me ;O) They're not mittens, they're not fingerless gloves, they're weird. But the most awesome thing I've ever found.

Let me know cost of materials and time if necessary cos I know this is a big ask.

No probs! Cool, I have a rough idea what to go for. I'll get back to you with specific patterns etc. when I've found some.

What's your email address, btw? You can mail me on skorpionuk at gmail

The best one to get me on is whiteligted at boltblue dot co dot uk :O) I check that one daily. I'm so sorry it took so long to get back to you about this.
