Oh yes, I did it!

Not dead yet!

Phew, just in time to have a single post in June.

No I've not been knitting, alhtough I have spent many a happy minute thinking about knitting and even longer trawling through ravelry about things I might never knit and people I'm glad I don't knit with...

However I'm not willing to give up this ghost yet so while there's now a June post we can cross our fingers together and hope for a better show in July.

We're going to see the Yarn Harlot!

Karen and I (and Seth, obviously) are going to see the Yarn Harlot at iknit 6th September! How cool is that!???

I think this site may be dying, owing entirely to Ravelry.

No knitting

It's just 11 pm on Sunday and I'm having a nightmare with Hali-f'ing-crapsters-fax Bank and needed to get that off my chest. What a bunch of crap. They suck big time. I wish I had more clout as a consumer and this is my only mode of publicising my views - even if it is just to you, Ella.

Halifax Bank is pissing me off. AND I have enough money in there. I'd love to take it all out and put it under my bed for the use they've been.

Ta-Dah!

I've only gone and done it!So there are a few errors - an extra row on the front, armholes that don't match up because I didn't take into account the extra cables on the back, a few holey bits where I picked up stitches on the armholes, but on the whole, I like it!
Now I just need Seth to fit into it perfectly when we go to watch Andrew playing cricket this summer.
Did I mention that the colours are Andrew's team's colours?

Cricket

The cricket pullover is nearing completion - my first knitting project in three months! Look out for photos soon ...

Knitting? What's knitting?

I've just knitted three rows of Seth's cricket pullover, the first knitting I have done for nearly a month.

Whoops!

Hmmm, I just sewed up the Mini Donkey of Glory and realised it looked a bit odd. Yeah, they do when you give them only TWO legs. What a plonker.

Luckily I have two very good reasons not to care.

1. I passed the January progress test. (Phew!)
2. And the second is a secret. (STC)

I hate sewing but I hate un-sewing more. In fact, it's enough to drive a girl to blog.

Stripy socks!

They're a bit big, but that might change when I wash them. Very satisfying to finish them and I am wearing them now!
