Firstly we are still trying to
get a decent photograph of my memorial quilt - so last week I made a sleeve for
the top of it so it could be hung on a pole like a curtain. However the bottom still looks uneven so I am
going to re-block it and make another sleeve for the bottom of the quilt.
I have started it!
Actually – it wont take long to
finish the knitting – I just need to get on with it. I may do it today.
The second unforeseen thing was
that my friend Buzz from All the Fun of the Fair wants some more tea cosies
knitted. As I was travelling around at
the weekend – I started knitting these as they are very portable projects.
The first of the 3 projects that
I had intended to start is a short-sleeved cardigan to wear to work when it is
a bit chilly. I don’t need it at the
moment but it would be good to have it finished by September.
The second is another project
that I need to finish in August. It is a
shawl for my aunt’s birthday.
I am not entirely happy with it
and may take it out again yet.
The third project is so far even
less successful. I have knitted 2 of the
afghans from Martin Storey’s Afghan Knits book and I decided I could use up
some yarn by knitting another one.
However I have only done one row and then got stuck.
I think the pattern is wrong –
but it may be me – I am not good with charts.
Often patterns have both but this one doesn’t. I will come back to this! I have enough to be getting on with.
