Hey @bernadettebanner, came home from work to a highly-anticipated surprise! 😍 Looking forward to learning heaps! #andcauldronbubble #bernadettebanner #makesewandmend https://www.instagram.com/p/CdsQ_KNp-Ae/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Thrilled to receive my traditional gnome project bag today! 😁 It is beautiful and sturdy, and is about to do double duty as temporary yarn storage 🤣 #jokamamotextiles #andcauldronbubble #projectbags #gnomes #lovemesomegnomes https://www.instagram.com/p/CcUDTNdpLIW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Diving into the fascinating world of knitted guernseys today! First up: Beth Brown-Reinsel's excellent book on the subject 😊 #andcauldronbubble #researchresearchresearch #knittedgansey #knittedguernsey #bethbrownreinsel #knittingganseys https://www.instagram.com/p/Ca8gOavJ-8v/?utm_medium=tumblr
Knitted a sweet little layette for someone very dear; it should keep the wee one warm and snuggly for a few months yet 🥰 I used Heirloom Merino Magic Chunky in Cobalt Blue and Buckwheat on 6mms (button covers knitted on 4mms) and knitted the majority in squishy garter stitch and garter rib ❤ #andcauldronbubble #babylayette #raglancardigan #babyhausschuhe #newsboycap https://www.instagram.com/p/CayZNOuJf87/?utm_medium=tumblr
Lastly but not leastly, I knitted a newsboy cap :) This item took me the longest to design; I was thinking of a cute bear ears bonnet, but that didn't quite go with the classic clean lines of the other items. Finally I hit upon a newsboy cap, and designed it from the top-down with a short rows brim. I increased out for the crown, then decreased down to create that signature puff, and knitted a garter rib border. I then created a brim over just under half the stitches, and used a half-graft method to secure the live stitches to the underside very tidily. The cap was seamed up the back, and I knitted a button cover in Buckwheat to complement the entire set. It's a super cute cap, and it's hard to resist the urge to simply don the cap in a very je ne sais quoi sort of fashion :P #andcauldronbubble #handknits #babylayette #heirloommerinomagicchunky #garter-stitch #newsboycap #knittednewsboy https://www.instagram.com/p/CayWiKDJeES/?utm_medium=tumblr
Continuing on, the next items were the booties! I used Baby Hausschuhe by Ines M., and modified it to suit my gauge. I knitted the soles in Buckwheat and the uppers in Cobalt Blue. The booties were knitted in garter stitch except for the cuffs, which were knitted in garter rib to match the cardigan! Again these were knit flat, and I seamed them up the back :) The cuffs fold over for extra warmth and stay-on-ability, and frankly I think I want an up-sized pair for myself- they look cozy :P #andcauldronbubble #handknits #babylayette #heirloommerinomagicchunky #garter-stitch #babyhausschuhe #babybooties https://www.instagram.com/p/CayWLSipopz/?utm_medium=tumblr
I have a secret- or rather, I HAD a secret. Just after Christmas I set myself the task of knitting a baby layette, and as it's now been posted off to its recipient, I can tell you all about it! :) I started with Improv by Karen Templer, and designed a garter stitch top-down raglan with a combination buttonband/shawl collar in garter rib (with cuffs!), knit flat with seams under each arm and at the centre of the bottom hem. I knit it out of Heirloom Merino Magic Chunky in Cobalt Blue, with Buckwheat accents. I sewed on stainless steel snaps to the inside of the buttonband, and knitted wee little stockinette buttons in Buckwheat for the front. It is super cute, super sturdy, and should last its recipient hopefully a few good months of wear :) #andcauldronbubble #handknits #babylayette #heirloommerinomagicchunky #garter-stitch #top-down-raglan #improv-raglan https://www.instagram.com/p/CayV92hJggV/?utm_medium=tumblr

One of my favourite shots from the recent photoshoot with @ebonymealing 😍 More to come; stay tuned! 😁 #andcauldronbubble #theenormousgreenthing #shetlandlace #hapshawl #halfhap #ebonyjkmealingphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CUzLsAMpGRH/?utm_medium=tumblr
Smoothing down the spine crease on this half hap 😊👍 #andcauldronbubble #shetlandlace #hapshawl #halfhap https://www.instagram.com/p/CUbgXdmpUf0/?utm_medium=tumblr
Despite having finished this back in April, my poor half hap is going in for its blocking today 🤣 Spring in Brisbane is the perfect time to be blocking a heavy winter shawl, no? 😋 #andcauldronbubble #halfhap #shetlandlace #hapshawl #hapshawlknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/CULuotvPmpp/?utm_medium=tumblr
Finally unpinned the Formal Salmon from its blocking; next step is to wet and block that spine crease! 😁 #andcauldronbubble #thesalmonshawl #laceblocking https://www.instagram.com/p/CTVvknoJspy/?utm_medium=tumblr
What a difference a second dip in the dyepot makes! The original yarn versus the twice-dyed madder yarn 😁👍 #andcauldronbubble #thesalmonshawl https://www.instagram.com/p/CTD1oNeJ9DT/?utm_medium=tumblr
Some late-night blocking in progress: I overdyed the Formal Salmon with some more madder, so now I suppose it's the Formal Orange? 😋 It had a thorough soak and rinse this arvo, and is benevolently accepting a nice rest on the foam mats. I'm looking forward to seeing it when it's dry!! #andcauldronbubble #thesalmonshawl https://www.instagram.com/p/CTCPVPMJY_V/?utm_medium=tumblr
Received a pleasant surprise in the post today; four project bags from @ollieandmay_yarns! Aren't they beautiful? 😍 #ollieandmay_yarns #andcauldronbubble #localbusiness #projectbags #handmadeinaustralia https://www.instagram.com/p/CSgGerxJ_u7/?utm_medium=tumblr
Progress has been slow for sure, but even slow progress achieves results! #andcauldronbubble #thesalmonshawl #shetlandlace https://www.instagram.com/p/CSQKBCfJTog/?utm_medium=tumblr
