A Year of Projects Update - week 48

 A day late!  We went to Brands Hatch yesterday, so no post.  But we are on half term now so thought I would put something up today!

Me Made May is winding up today and I will do a summary post in the week.  But here is a compilation of this last week's outfits. 

I got out my skirts this week, teamed with a variety of tops.

As for progress, I have only worked on my vest this week and am now onto the body.

This is being knit in some Exmoor Zwartbles by John Arbon Textiles. 

Last week, I did a class on Roosimine as part of Unravel.  I came out with this:

It was supposed to be coaster but I missed a couple of rounds and it fit nicely as a wrist warmer.  I really enjoyed this and it is actually really easy - I just need to make sure I do another before I  forget!

I also treated myself this week.  It has been tough at work and fancied a pick me up - so I treated myself to a beautiful mug.

I got this from Mary Wright Ceramics in Kent.  

Whilst I  was sorting out my son's room (will explain next week) I discovered my next project.   I hope to blog about that in the week as well!

Anyway,  I hope you all have a great week.

A Year of Projects Update - week 47

 It has been a fairly uneventful week.   Work has been frantic and is set to continue into next week.   For that reason I have kept up with Me Made May but not written a summary of the week. 

So here is a snapshot of the week 

Again in the most part it seems rather grey!

I haven't managed that much progress this week but did cast on a new project.

This is vest number 2 knit in some John Arbon Textiles Exmoor Zwartbles that I purchased a couple of weeks ago.

I also started a toile for some underwear - pattern from Sozoblog (same person who started Me Made May) and fabric is from stash.

All done bar the elastic that I  hope to add today.

Otherwise I used some money I  got for my birthday to sign up for a class at virtual Unravel today about Roosimine - a technique I have never heard of - I  shall feed back next week!

I will leave you with a picture of my new flowers from my subscription and bid you all a great week. 

A Year of Projects Update - week 46

 Things are really getting hectic at school at ghe moment,  so although I have kept up with Me Made May and posting on Instagram,  I have done little else in that department.  I will endeavour to do an additional post next week to summarise my findings so far!

This was my summary of last week.

There seems to be quite a colour theme going on this week!  Notice I wore my new Olive pinafore several times!

On the crafting front I had a finish (this morning actually, so this is unblocked and I will probably sew down the colar once blocked. )

Try to ignore the bare bits and messy bedroom, this was for finishing purposes only!  I will wear this with a high waisted skirt .  When it is blocked I will style it correctly.  This is the Antiquity blouse by Fabel knitwear and I love it and also loved knitting it.  It is knit from a combination of Keld fingering and Eldwick lace by Eden Cottage yarn.

I really haven't done anything else...

Oh yes, apart from bake a birthday cake for Daniel who entered double digits in the week!

And that is that!  I see no let up at school, this week and the next, but the end is in sight!

I hope everyone has a great week.
