A Year of Projects Update - Week 35

My husband has been laid low this week with flu.  It means that this week has been a little bit mad!  I have still managed to get in some knitting - of course!
I have just this minute finished some mitts for Thomas - so new that I haven't taken photos.  He has put them on the radiator for tomorrow so I may not get to photograph those.
I have made progress on Hitofude.
I have got one more pattern repeat to the increases then its straight down to the bottom.  I am loving knitting this as its been a while since I have knit lace and I do so enjoy it.
I have picked up my sock club socks again and I am now onto the last chart then its the heel so it should start to fly by now (the last chart is only a short one).  Daniel has informed me though that he needs me to start his next socks now before I finish these, so I will start those this afternoon after the ironing.
I have also made a little progress on Bracken.  I love working with this yarn as it is so gorgeous and squishy.  It is Mellifera yarn cash dk and it is splendid.
I also took possession of the print version of Interpretations 3 by Joji and Veera.  I love it - I am currently gushing over the patterns and want to knit everything.  I will need yarn purchases though and I have been so good I think I will virtual shop for a bit longer.  I want to finish the 2 sweaters I have otn and then I want to knit a worsted boxy and From Way Back - so I have a while to plan!
I think that is it for now - hope you all have a good week.

  1. Oh the flu's no fun... I hope your husband improves quickly and that the rest of you manage to avoid it!

    All the projects look great and I particularly love all the gorgeous yarn colours you've got going on. I just bet the Joji and Veera book is awesome!

  7. Oh no...not the flu! Yuch! I hope he's feeling better fast, I love your Brachen and the socks are a great color. I also adore the first shawl with that gorgeous blue yarn. I hope no one else gets sick in your family. Take care and have a great week!
