While browsing online for ideas, I came across a lovely red and white fairisle knitted baby dress for sale. As there aren't any babies in my family to knit for, (don't they grow up so fast) I made this for Annabell. Then I found some bright yellow yarn in my stash so along with cream and a touch of green knitted up the second dress. Now, as I may have mentioned before, I love knitting socks, especially tiny little socks like these which complete the outfit. Iv'e given instructions for single point needles, but the dress can easily be adapted to knit in the round. I knit the yellow dress and socks on 4mm circular needles which worked well The sleeves are made first, then the dress in one piece to armhole shaping, the pieces are then joined to knit the yoke. There is a small back opening for ease of fit. There are two patterns for the socks; one on spnds and the other dpns. I found the pattern easier to write this way and avoids confusion. The socks are quite short but can easily be lengthened by adding a few more rows or a rib. I love my hobby of designing patterns and posting them online. But I often can’t find anyone who has the time to test my patterns, although I do knit them up a few times myself. So mistakes can slip by, especially typos when transferring the pattern to my blog. So, please, please, if you find and errors or have any queries, let me know either by commenting below or contacting me via the contact form.

This is somewhat of an Anglo-American enterprise. I have taken a pecan pie, and added other nuts, simply because for me, the English festive season means bowls of mixed nuts and the memory of my grandfather being able to crack them, pressing two against each other, in his bare hands. I don’t crack them myself here even with a nutcracker, I’m afraid. But I do make sure I buy good fresh (check the dates on the packet) natural ones — that’s to say unsalted and free of additives — that come together in a pack comprising Brazils, natural (unblanched) almonds, hazelnuts, pecans and walnuts.

One could describe Mana Morimoto's embroidered photographs as an unconventional form of collage. The Tokyo-based artist, who was educated in the US but returned to Japan just a few years ago, finds vintage photos and re-imagines them with her technicolor thread. While many of her subjects have lasers coming out of their eyes, Morimoto's way of working is intentionally low tech. Each piece contains evidence of the hand-done process. Lately, Morimoto has been making abstract woven patterns with a psychedelic symmetry, departing from her usual figurative subjects. Take a look at some of her recent work after the jump.
