I’m Vivienne Morgan. I design knitting patterns inspired by my love of sighthounds and nature. My current dog is Paddy, ex-racer, my Inspiration and Knitting Buddy. I have patterns for sale on Ravelry https://www.ravelry.com/stores/vivienne-morgan-designs
Autumn Zoomies was inspired by the colours of @schoppelwolle Crazy Zauberball yarns: 2545 Early Autumn, and the appropriately named 2475 Background Noise,a stranded colourwork match made in heaven!

Pattern now available from my Rav store see link in bio.

This is the hat that I referred to in my previous post. I’m not sure if the link to Instagram works, so this is a screenshot of the original post. The pattern is Love a Duck, available from my Ravelry store ( link in bio) and the yarn is from blackcheviot.com

I’m thrilled to get this wonderful write up from #schoppelwolle for my sock knitting pattern Paddy’s Rocky Road. Screenshots from Fb as I’m not sure how to share on here, but links in bio. Crazy Zauberball is 👌for colorwork with the right contrast yarn! #knitsky #crazyzauberball #greyhoundrescue

I dug this cushion cover out of the “hibernating” box, and found I only have ten more rounds to finish. I started it a couple of years ago, and the centre panel is studded with beads. Yarn is The Croft DK from West Yorkshire Spinners. Needle size is 4 mm, huge compared to my usual sock needles 😆

My favourite cushion that I knit from yarn I spun myself. Pattern is Om Elephant, my own design available from my Ravelry store. #knitsky #knittingpattern #ravelry #strandedcolorwork #elephant #knittedcushion #handspunyarn

Changing around the colours on the second sock, to alleviate the dreaded Second Sock Syndrome!
Paddy's Rocky Road is the pattern, and the next photo is of the retired Champ himself! #knitsky #onmyneedles #knittedsocks #greyhound #retiredracinggreyhound #ravelrypattern #paddysrockyroad

I’ve finished another pair of Paddy’s Rocky Road Socks, now on the sock blockers. I’m planning to make a pair for each day of the week in different colours. #knitsky #sockknitting #ravelry #greyhoundrescue #greyhound

Paddy’s Rocky Road new sock pattern, represents the transition a Greyhound from racing kennels has to make, to adjust to living in a domestic environment.
Proceeds from any sales will be donated to greyhoundgap.org.uk the charity that rescues dogs like Paddy, and helps them into homes.

Toe up, centre-sole gusset with short row heel & integrated heel-flap. Once I discovered this method, I use it on all my sock designs on Ravelry, and I convert other patterns I’m knitting to this method. The result is a better, stretchier fit over the instep.

This seems to be Paddy’s default setting for when he’s sleeping ( which is a lot of the time)🐾🤪

A lovely walk with Paddy yesterday, warm but with a cool sea breeze. Paddy investigated an open gate. We saw the white peahen. Poppies gave a splash of colour! #greyhound #rescuedog #dogwalk #coast

Today we called in to a special 95th birthday celebration for a wonderful lady! ! Her family arranged for a surprise piper to arrive at her house. I made her a lavender sachet from my own design: Speak the Praises of the Hare. Joyous occasion! #knitsky #seamusheaney #birthday #ravelry #hares

This is the third #rybkapouch (pattern by @ratandseawitch on Rav) that I’ve made. It really is addictive to knit. #wipwednesday #knitsky #onmyneedles #ravelry #knitting

l've been working sporadically on this design for a couple of years. I love the way the pattern is knitting up to look like a faded & foxed woodcut from an old book. The splash of red at toe & cuffs emphasises the vintage book look! #strandedcolorwork #socks #knitting #lifeinthelonggrass #knitsky

A very bold ( or foolish?) bunny. We were just about to go out the back door for a walk. We have quite a few of these wild black rabbits around here. #greyhound #wildrabbit

I should really save this for Halloween, but here is Paddy doing a “Zombie-dog of The Apocalypse” impression 😱🐾🧟‍♂️ Nearly put me off my knitting! 🤣 #greyhound #rescuedog #zombieeye #sleepingdog #knittingbuddy

I’m knitting myself a new phone cosy, as my last one got chomped by a certain hound… 🤭 #knitting #ravelrydesigner #rescuegreyhound #onmyneedles

My OH, is very happy with the Mongolia Beanie I knit for him for his birthday! I hope that it reminds him of his travels 🇲🇳.

If you want to knit yourself one, the pattern is available in my Ravelry store. #ravelrypattern #handknitting #strandedcolorwork #knittedhat #knittersofbluesky #mongolia

I have sock patterns in my Ravelry Store. If you are a sock knitter and want something a bit different, do take a look.

All my socks are knit toe up, and have a single sole gusset and an integral heel flap, which doesn’t require any picking up of stitches. They fit well too! #ravelry #sockmadness
