A Walk in the Park

“Let us to go for a walk in the park”, she said. “We will take some bread for the ducks And jam jars to catch fishes in And, maybe, a skipping rope…” “The blackbird is sure to be singing,” she said, “And children will be flying kites, Making castles in the sandpit, And throwing […]

Wool on Sundays – 164 (A Little Ice Cream)

Welcome to the August edition of Wool on Sundays! It has been very hot here, lately. Much too hot for knitting really but I did make a couple of small ice creams. I made them for my Endeavourers quilt but then decided it already had too much going on. Should you happen to want to […]

Wool on Sundays – 163 (A little bit woolly)

Welcome to Wool on Sundays! And thank you for visiting my long abandoned blog :) At last, this month, I have managed to get back to a very little woolliness and I’m on the last arm of this jumper that I started months ago. You can probably guess why! The garden, alas, goes ever onwards […]

Wool on Sundays – 161 (Two Small Knits)

Welcome to another Wool on Sundays! I’m afraid it’s not the most interesting as I’ve shown my recent finishes already but here they are anyway :) You may remember that, last month, I was waiting for my local wool shop to phone with some more of the pink they had said they would order. After […]

Spring – Inside and out

I seem to have given up blogging of late and almost a month has gone by, during which time Spring has been springing. But I’m glad to say I have completed my monthly goal of adding all the TAST stitches to date into my fanTASTichia picture. Lots of these stitches are new to me and […]
