Eek, it’s been a while since I last posted here! Did you miss me?!
Rather than go through everything I’ve done lately in detail, here’s a photo montage that shows some of the highlights.
As you can see, there were lambs involved.

Or just enjoy the pictures. I’ll write [...]

Yesterday’s sunset…

Today’s FO, my Fluffy the Vampire Sweater.

Tomorrow’s (and Sunday’s) Knitting WIP:

Ravelled.

It was a dull grey Saturday here today, so I took my camera for a walk, taking photos of things that make me happy. Despite the dim light, I found plenty to photograph - so many that this is a photo-heavy post, sorry if that makes it slow to load…
First of all there’s my [...]

OK, so I can now personally vouch for the reports that flu is not a good thing to have. I’m getting over it now, but a few days disappeared in a haze of paracetamol and too much TV (I got through a whole series of Gilmore Girls in two days, but please don’t ask [...]

Today I had a lovely ‘me’ day, which involved a bit of pottering around, a little sheep maintenance, some light Wildcraft admin (I get twitchy if I’m away from my computer for too long…) and to top it all, I finished a sewing project I’ve had on the shelf for ages.

It was my first real lace project and I did encounter a few problems early on, mainly a dropped stitch that needed rescuing. But after that I ploughed on and was going well until I reached the border, at [...]

I promised I’d post some pictures of my recycled yarn cardigan didn’t I? It’s been a while, but this weekend I finally modelled it for some FO photos. So without further ado, here they are.

I’ve had a mean-old head cold for the last couple of days, so I haven’t been on best form lately. But that hasn’t stopped me knitting, and I have a new project that’s just off the needles which I’m very pleased with.
Since my head’s a bit too bunged up to type much, [...]

I started out with some batts that I’d carded from some BFL wool in my calendulas [...]
