A Year of Projects Update - week 39

 I completely missed last week.  There was no particular reason, just ran out of time.  This week, however, I am on holiday, so have plenty of time!

Having more time does not translate to more progress though!

I have finished the Delovely skirt- just a belt to go.

This is knit in John Arbon Textiles Yarnadelic.

I was going to start a yoga top, but as I was going through my fabric stash I came upon an old top that had perished under the arms.  I also had some old leggings, that I have upcycled together to make a yoga top.  I have bound them at the neck and now just have to hem the armhole.

I have lined up a top and a hat which I will write about next week as hopefully   they will be WIP's by then.  I have done a little gardening this weekend and have got some potatoes sown.

We also had our first bbq last night.

So here's to a productive week!  Hope everyone has a good weekend.

  2. How wonderful to get to enjoy the outdoors again. That's some pretty impressive up cycling. I can't imagine taking on the knitting of a skirt. Congrats.

  3. What a clever idea to combine those items to make a new yoga top. Don’t forget to let us know how you find the knitted skirt after a few wears, I’m very interested to see how it copes being sat on etc.
