It’s a question because I’m not too sure you can ever have too many baby hats, especially when said baby is due on January the 1st.
Having said that, my grandson, when he gets here, will also need cardigans and I’m not sure buying them is on when he’s gonna have a nana that knits?
It’s only excusable to a point, right?
I’ve had a cold for over a fortnight now and I’m getting rather fed up with it at this stage. It’s one of those horrible ones, that mutates almost daily and lingers forever.
Maybe that should be no time to knit, or very little knitting done? I’ve had a bit of a hectic social life of late and whilst I crave the opportunity to get out and about, I really would just like to have a little free time to knit.
I’m not going to bore you all, by going over my Yarnfolk Festival of Wool experience last Saturday. I rambled on about it for fourty minutes on the video for the Olann and You Tube Channel.
Needless to say, I had a great time and made a couple of purchases. A very modest haul, even if I do say so myself.
I promise this will be the last post about the colour options for my Strokkur by Ysolda Teague.
Hopefully, you’re enjoying it as much as I am?
The last few days have been rather busy and my knitting time has been a bit sparse. What little I’ve had, was given over to serious swatch knitting for the Olann and Yarn Reviews. We’ve been sent some right lovelies to share with our readers in the next issue and so far, I’ve knitted eight up. I’m pretty sure there’s at least two more to arrive and then they’ll be done. Just have to write about them now.
I can’t believe how much I’m enjoying spending some time every day with my spinning wheel and some fibre.
It’s been a busy fortnight since my last post and I’ve been so caught up with travelling to woolly festivals and spending time with my family, that there hasn’t been much time or energy for much in the way of knitting.
I’ve not been myself for the past couple of weeks, sore feet will do that to you I guess? Bloody things are driving me mad!
As a result the time I spend making, has taken a bit of a nose dive and I feel like I haven’t achieved that much.
Despite it being barely above freezing here this morning, the sun is up in the sky, the birds are singing away and all is good in the world. Well that’s providing you don’t turn on the telly, computer or radio, refuse to open a newspaper and never venture outside. We can still dream though and there’s nothing like dreaming about shiny pretty things, or in my case mostly woolly or woolly related things.
