I can’t believe I have been
writing this blog for 4 years. As usual
when I start my review of the year – I think I haven’t done much and then I
look back through my blog posts and realise that I have done lots of knitting
during the past year.
The year started with me knitting
fruit tea cosies and fruit and vegetables for All the Fun of the Fair. It was quite a challenge and I think some
looked much better than others.
Throughout the whole of 2017 – I was knitting my Knit the Sky scarf. It was quite an interesting exercise but it was a bit of a chore some days. I still now look at the sky to see what colour it is and then think – “you don’t need to do that anymore”.
I know I have knitted lots of different
shawls during the year – and they were mostly “relaxing” knitting – just
something to knit – I wear some of them more than others.
I am particularly pleased with
the 2 throws I knitted last year and the WW1 Memorial Quilt which is an ongoing
project. I attended a Knitting and
Crochet Guild workshop on how to knit a
10-stitch blanket and although I found it difficult at first – but once I got
the hang of it – I knitted a whole blanket and then a second one made up of
lots of central sections.
I hope it won’t be long before I
have a whole WW1 Memorial Quilt to show you.
