A Year of Projects Update - Week 41

 It's been a lovely week.  I finished my blanket,  but more about that in a moment.   We had a bbq on Tuesday as it was my birthday and we are now allowed to meet as a 6 in a garden!  I've never bbqed in the snow, but I did then!  

Here you can see me and my friends trying to keep warm!  I am at the back with my new blanket.   It is knit in all sorts of leftover sock yarn, corner to corner in garter stitch.

For the rest of the week I have done very little apart from work on my Oare Water.

I am now on the second sleeve and hope to be finished today.

I haven't worked on anything else, but I  will his coming week.   

I have also been doing some gardening, which is nice - I have got some of the vegetables in and again will do a little more this next week. 

So now to get back to this sleeve!  I hope everyone has a great week.

  2. I love the heavily muffled party group. You all look cheerful anyway. Good idea to have hot food that day.

  3. You all look so cold. The sweater is pretty. You got a lot done on it this week. Is it warm enough there to garden?

  4. So glad you were able to have real people for your birthday. That bundled up look is very familiar to me. That's how we look here in Wisconsin!
