February - EPIC MAL 2023 + Merkelapp Mini Course Follow up + A Sharing!

Greetings from the farm,

The arrival of February means a new colour sequence within our EPIC Year Long Ullpledd MAL 2023!

I enjoyed knitting the first colour stripe over coffee this morning.

And, as promised, my Merkelapp Mini Course finish!!!

I shared my finish on Instagram stories today, but I know that not everyone interacts with Instagram and that will soon disappear.

Loving small, detailed work as I do, I enjoyed creating my ullpledd merkelapp.

AND! it was such fun hand sewing it onto my ullpledd!

It has been nice to take a little bit of time each day for hand embroidery/stitching....to finish my knitting bag book journal covers or to complete my module "oppgave" - assignments.

I know it sounds strange, but it is nice to have the merkelapp there on the ullpledd while I knit along. :)

Adding in my first colour sequence for February, the return of the sun over the mountain, and my little hand made merkelapp....well, it feels inspired!

If you have joined into the EPIC MAL, I hope that you are also on track with your aims for February!

I started crocheting my lapper for my lappeteppe this month, too!

I will share those another time.

We will meet again on February 26th to share, to inspire and to celebrate - ready for March!

In the meantime, I am working on another MAL demo/sharing for this month, which I hope will be inspiring and interesting. I will post that for you soon!

A sharing....

During Sunday's community check in session, I falied to share an article and a book that I am currently reading and so enjoying - which might be of interest.
