Pink pig time!

I've had a request to knit a piggy for one of hubbies colleagues, so out come the dpns again! The pattern I'm going to use is the one I based the starting shape of zingy on, so should knit up in no time! I've got the perfect pink wool too, just need to nip out and buy buttons for its eyes.
I'll pop a finished picture of the pig up as soon as he's done.
All the best,

Oh my goodness, I've finished my cables!

Had a rather good day yesterday, spent knitting the button bands of my lovely Aran cardi and then sewing it up! It fits me perfectly so I wore it into town to buy it some buttons. I chose some really pretty cream ones with flecks in, good no?
Now onto fair isle for the winter- hurrah!
Photos of fair isle soon,
