Welcome to another week of Yarn Along, you can see what everyone else is making and reading by heading over to Ginny’s blog here.
This week I wish my progress wasn’t so slow. Why am I not surprised?! That’s what happens when you’re working on more than one thing at a time.
I’m loving the Polka Dot rug that I’m making for my sister’s baby E.T.A. 7-10 weeks away, but probably just 7 weeks away. So far I’ve made a patch of each of the 13 coloured centres.
I think if I aim for 35 squares in total (5 x 7 grid) that would be sensible. There’s so much to do and so little time.
I’ve also been spinning, I have to keep up and perhaps try to get ahead of my fibre stash before my next Southern Cross Fibre club instalment arrives on my doorstep…
Ooops too late.
Well perhaps I can make some more spinning time this week… some how. I have to say David’s fibre is every bit delicious that his reputation suggests. I have not been disappointed with his colour choices for me.
I also popped along to Woolarium’s birthday celebration this weekend and picked up some Malabrigo for a future project. How could I resist?
I’m very passionate about the yarn stores we have in Melbourne, and I like to support them when I can. After all they run by people who are passionate about yarn and have taken the huge leap of faith that lovely knitters will patronise them. I love buying yarn, so I do what I can…
Don’t be fooled by the one skein pictured, I have way more for a jumper.
I’m still listening to Outlander and avoiding watching the shows; I am loving it!
Hopefully I’ll have an FO next week, somehow.
