A Year of Projects - Year 15

 So here is my Year of Projects plan!  I missed last weeks round up post (first time in 12 years).  In all honesty, there is not a lot I want to remember from last year - my mum was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer early in 2024, and she passed away in March this year.  Although there are lots of things I want to look back on, there aren't many from last year.

So here we are looking forward!

I don't have many specifics for this year's list, more of a general idea, which has worked well for me over a number of years.

Knitting ideas

Socks - some more from the Stephen West year of socks

Dress - I would like to do Elsk

Cardigan - possibly Cardigan

Finish items already started - Hinchenbrook, desk vest set, Windlass and socks

Gloves for dad

Sewing ideas

I have lofty ideas to make myself 2 dresses to go to Goodwood this year (the theme is the summer of love) - I have the fabric and will make one Coco - and possible one other

Yoga tops 

Summer pj's  - possible upcycle

Satin shorts

Other ideas 

Kitchen cafe! - explained in week 2!

Plan the garden for next season

And that is my plans for this year.  Not too long and it will develop and change over the year.  I will leave you with that this week.  Next week I will be back with what I have been doing the last few weeks - there are some finishes and a whole new project!

A Year of Projects Update - week 51

 Time is going by too fast at the moment!  You blink and it is nearly the end of my year of Projects year.  Next week I will try to do a round up post - I say try as it's been a bit of a year, so we will see!

I do have a bit of progress this week.  I have finished the main part of the leg on my Stephen West socks for ...?  I'm not sure what month these were now.  

I have since picked up the stitches for the cuffs and hope to finish the cuffs today - leaving me with the feet to do over the next couple of weeks.

I have done very little on my Windlass vest,  but again, I hope to get going on that over the next couple of weeks.

I recieved my journal fron paper republic. 

It is the red one, pictured with my Hobinichi weeks.  I love both of these!!  

Anyway, that is that for this week - I am not sure if I will do next week - I may focus on a new start and new year 😊

Hope everyone has a great week. X

A Year of Projects Update - week 49

 We spent last weekend at Brands Hatch, so no post then.  I'm not sure what I've been doing of late, but it has not been knitting!  

I have made a little bit of progress on my Windlass vest 

This is in John Arbon textiles yarn.

And that is about it for the last 2 weeks!  

I went to see The Salt Path which was lovely  and very true to the book.

I have also been doing a bit of journalling.  I've got quite into it and have treated myself to a journal from Paper Republic.  I will show you when I get it - hopefully this week!

And that is really it this week.  I hope everyone has a great week 😊
