A Year of Projects Update - week 5

 I missed last week.   Didn't quite mean to, but I spent most of last Sunday driving back to Somerset to meet up with my brother.

I have been doing some crafting since breaking up for the summer.   

I finished my first dress for Goodwood.   This is not thd best picture but will havd to do for a moment - then I will do a modelled shot!!

We are going to the Goodwood Revival in September and so I need 2 dresses for the Saturday and Sunday- this is the first. 

I have also nearly finished the Desktop vest but have now ran out of wool - I have ordered a last ball but need to wait for it to arrive.

I have therefore, started a new project!  I fancied a fitted Cardigan, so I've decided on Joy by Veera Valimaki.

I am going to use some John Arbon Textiles yarn and I have made a few inroads on the yoke already.

I have a somewhat busy week this week - all nice!  Meeting friends and doing a bit of walking.  Last week I, not only visited Somerset, but also went to London to check out where my gran used to live.


Anyway,  me and my friend had a lovely day and found out a bit more history of the family!

And that is that for this week.  It's a busy one ahead, but I should be able to report in next week - I hope everyone has a great week 😊
