I’m sorry I haven’t posted in such a long time. Apparently when you enter into Woolcraft competitions, you’re supposed to be a bit secretive about your makes until the judging has occurred. That’s no fun! I’m not even sure if that applies to blogs, is a judge reading my blog right now?! I highly doubt it.

I can confirm three sweaters and a pair of socks have been entered into the Woolcraft competition! My second pair of socks have missed out, because well, that was a pipe dream.

Since completing my entries, my intentions have moved to my Nimue crochet blanket by Shelley Husband, that has darkened my living room basket for 2 years, 2.5 years! If you recall, I stopped working on this when I realised I’d bitten off more than I could chew, by also working on my Hand Spinning Certificate at the same time.

I’m actually really enjoying making this once again. No deadlines, no homework, no competitions (definitely can’t be entered into any show, because it’s cotton).

I haven’t forgotten about my ‘Cast-on a sweater a month’ goal. I’m hoping to recommence those shenanigans in August. I’ve got a blanket to finish and there seems to be a few people in my life who need beanies right now. It’s very chilly in Melbourne, and sadly the forecast for Bendigo weekend is cold and wet.

I’ll be back on Friday, with my latest completed sweater (when the judging is over!)
