A Year of Projects Update - week 6

 Well I have been pretty monogamous this week, which has seen me make lots of progress on the Tonight Top by  Lily Kate France.

I  am using Scheepjes Catona as I used for my Call of the Sea as I fancied a cotton version.  I am hoping to get to the bottom ribbing before we go to Sweden tomorrow.

Call of the Sea is finished, but still needs the ends woven in - I may do that today...

And that's all the crafting!  I went to the sea to swim on Tuesday - it was a bit chppy but we braved it and it was great!

Other than that,  we are off to Sweden for a week tomorrow.   I am not taking any knitting - just in case!  I won't be posting next week as we are away and there will be very little crafting!

I hope everyone has a brilliant couple of weeks and I will catch up on my return 🇸🇪

A Year of Projects Update - week 5

 I have had quite a nice relaxing week!  And managed to get some crafting in.

I am nearly done on my Call of the Sea by Susan Crawford. 

I obviously have the straps to finish and sew in a few ends and then I'm done!

Whilst visiting mum I wore one of my Walkaway dresses.

It's not the best pic of the dress!  But I loved it anyway.

Whilst there I worked on 2 WIP'S 

My second pair of socks from the 24 in 24 (definitely am not making 24!)

These are being knit from Fine Fish Yarns and is a made up pattern.  I've just turned the heel, so just  bit of leg to go!

I also did some more on Hitchenbrook by Martin Storey. 

This is a long term WIP that may or may not be finished by Christmas!

And finally, since Call of the Sea is nearly done  I have started another top in Scheepjes Catona.

This is the Tonight top by Lily Kate France. 

I  have one more week until my holiday - we are going to Sweden.  So this week will be mainly prepping the packing and garden for our time away!

Hope everyone has a great week 😊

A Year of Projects Update - week 4

 And breathe!  The summer holidays are here.

I've made a good start in terms of crafting.

I have done quite a lot on Call of the Sea. 

This is by Susan Crawford and I am knitting it in Catona by Scheepjes - I haven't got much more to do on this  but I'm unlikely to finish it before we go away.

I also finished another Butterick B4790 

I think that is the last one for a moment  - I now have 3!

That's all the projects  - me and Daniel are going to go to see mum today for a few days and then return for a wedding next weekend. 

I'm taking some older projects with me to see if I can put some time in on those. 

Anyway will see what I can do by then - I hope everyone has a cracking week!!
