A Year of Projects Update - week 16

 I'm a bit later today!  I've been very productive with my chores, but not so much with my knitting this week.  

The only knitting I've done is making my way down the first sleeve of my Joy Cardigan.

And that is it!

Last week I went for a walk with my friends and my knee held out well (grant you, I wore a support and used my walking poles!)  We walked for 9 miles and it was glorious!

We have one more week until the midterm break and, as usual, I can't wait!!  I'm going back to see dad and a few friends, but otherwise,  the week is my own!  Anyway, there is a week of school first, so can't get too excited yet!

I hope everyone has a great week 😊 

A Year of Projects Update - week 15

 Another week goes by!  Last weekend was lovely as we watched our favourite driver win the touring car championship!!

Anyway, back to normality - I  have been working on my Joy Cardigan this week and am now on the sleeves.

I'm knitting this in John Arbon Textiles yarn which is more green than the photo!  I'm loving this and it hopefully shouldn't take too much longer.

I am off walking today.  The first big walk since my knee injury.  So hopefully,  it should be ok!  I'm going with 2 friends,  so it should be a great day.

I hope everyone has a great week 😊

A Year of Projects Update - week 13

 Oh I nearly missed posting today!  Not that I have been doing a lot today...

I have been working on my Joy Cardigan by Veera Valimaki. 

It is the only thing I have been working on.  I'm using a John Arbon Textiles yarn. 

I also went into the garden and dug some potatoes 🥔, it's one of the only things growing in the garden this year.  That and beetroot!

I do have a pile of fabric waiting for me to turn into some tops - I will probably stick to my now tried and tested Freya pattern. 

It's very short this week - next week I'm testing my knee with a walk and pub lunch.

I hope everyone has a good week.
