It’s definitely knitting weather at the moment. I have almost finished a Sirdar Surfer cardi for the shop and a pair of socks. I am still slaving away (well, a couple of rows a day) on the Seasilk scarfy wrap too.
We’re off to Surrey tomorrow for a couple of days to stay with some friends. It’s a good base to get to London so we’re taking the kids for the day on Friday. It’s probably a big mistake as I think it is going to rain plus it’s half term so everywhere will be heaving, still on the bright side we are going to Hamley’s to see Noo-noo from Teletubbies! It’s the Teletubbies 10th anniversary. I may get to go to Liberty’s too as it’s only down the road.
Anyway, I have planned to make my friend Lou a dishcloth as a pressie so I need to start that today.
I bought some roving to spin from Etsy. It’s a brilliant US website where people can sell their handmade crafts and stuff. I am attempting to make a 4ply sockweight yarn which is quite challenging and will take ages, but I am loving it. It’s a shame I can’t fit my spinning wheel in the car for the weekend away!
