Lush for Belle Tadah!

As part of moving my creativity forward I have decided to dye a new yarn colourway each month inspired by what is on my needles/hook or by what is about to be on my needles/hook.
 So far a success! 

This month I dyed 'Ode to Cherry' to celebrate moving into Autumn. Cherries I have always found to be the most perfect summer fruit, yet have always looked so 'wintery' in colour to me, all in all the perfect inspiration for an Autumn yarn!



 I also wanted to start getting some winter knits done for my niece and as I am a bit of a sucker for making things for girls in 'not-pink' I cast on a Lush for her immediately. Brilliant knit all round, fabulous pattern, beautiful and clever without being difficult. Great knit! And here are the results... I cant wait to see my niece wear it!  


This project has made me so excited about planning, casting on and working with a new colourway next month. I am having quite a good time really :)

Hope you are all smiling!
