Arse biscuits!

June 17, 2009

Before you get all excited, this isn’t some strange and kooky cooking post.

I think it was the lovely Julia who coined the phrase and it’s pretty appropriate:

004

There ain’t no way, no how, that that sleeve is going to fit that armhole.

As I was knitting the front and back I was thinking “these armholes looked pretty weird”.  I did pull them back a couple of times, but no, the pattern insisted they’d work.

Well, it lied.

I suppose you can’t win ’em all.

I just wish you could.

A frogging I will go!

Hi there,
I'm Evie and I knit, stitch, spin and sew.
With varying degrees of success!
But always with my family around me in our little town in the North of England.
Grab a brew and stay a while.
