Kina Progress- in the home stretch

Here is a more up to date photo of the knitting progress on my kina. I have passed the sleeves and it is getting a bit quicker as I continue the back and front. The pattern is on ravelry, and the wool is bendigo wool mills, 8ply blueberry. I bought it from our local supplier at unwind café. I first heard about this kina pattern from retro mummy, who was making them for her girls. The one below is for me, but reminding me that I usually make smaller items when I knit 🙂

I would love to do this pattern again, but think I will make one for littler humans than me, next time.
I have also been tatting, but more about that later in the week.
Happy tatting
