This week I have managed to finish (bar tying in the loose threads) the crochet dolls blanket. I got a bit carried away and decided to work a border into it. To say I am completely thrilled with the end result, would be an understatement. I am gobsmacked a) that I finished something b) that it looks good (to me).
Drum Roll moment ....
On the knitting front ...
A frenzy of knitting patches. Last weekend we spent a day with friends catching up. "Do you mind if I knit?" I asked as I sat down. A peel of laughter ensued ha ha - 3 hours later and cupboards are being pulled apart looking for those knitting needles and odd balls of wool. To keep my interest level high - as I am prone to drift - I put a 'what it might look like' together. I'm liking it. This is going to be a knee throw, so there isn't a great deal more knitting now.Maybe.
I managed to also FINISH (loving that word today) the paper garland
for my new little great nephew.
So sweet.
My neighbour had a baby girl yesterday. I think she will be home today.
Labour has been stopping and starting for the past week.
Looking after a two year old was exhausting. I was in bed by 9.00pm last night.
Being a night owl, this was out of the ordinary for me.
I will start on a couple of little singlets for the new arrival today.
Time to pop into Kootoyoo to see everyone else.
