    Well this is the latest work in progress. The evening light makes the left hand top corner look a bit dark so I am hoping a nice light square will pop through the letter box this week.

    update for me:

    1 Aaron Square
    1 Baby Hat.


    Haven't done much this week, am working on a little side project of knitting a bag, just as an experiment to see how it will turn out and also plan to knit my sister some gloves to match the scarf I knitted her a little while ago. And plan to knit myself a scarf too! If I get around to it.

    Chalky - the blanket is gorgeous! I love it, well done! Can't wait to see the little blanket.

    Best wishes to all. xxx

    Hi everyone.

    Chalky - the blanket is looking great, isn't it? Thanks so much for sewing it up and keeping us updated with it!

    ISOM - the photos are lovely. The beads look so delicate, as does the wool you've used for the shawl. I can just imagine how soft it is; well done for such a good job!

    Thanks for all your updates. I hope to do the main update this afternoon.

    I didn't get the sleeves for the latest baby cardi finished last night because I kept dozing off! The effects of the wine the night before, methinks! I started them, though, and I'm knitting them both at the same time because I haven't got much wool left; I wound what's left into two separate balls. Knitting them both at the same time means that when I run out of wool, at least I'll have two matching sleeves, however short they may be!

    Anyway, see you all later.

    Morning all,

    Chalky - the memory blanket is looking really good, let me know if you need any more squares, I am happy to do a few more :smiley:
    Kathy - what an awful thing to happen,I have never heard of anything like that before. Glad mine is in the utility so I can shut the door on it, especially when the LO's are here.
    ISOM - well done :T they both look really good, love the colour of the shawl,
    :wave: Elaine - nice to see you back

    Last night I made a big decision....I ripped my 2nd ripple blanket back I was'nt very happy with it, I had done 2 rows of each colour same as last time but less colours. I used 15 last time but only 6 this time, love them but I think they will look better in rows of 4 or 6 so will give it a go and let you know how it turns out.
    Did a load of IS hats as well as I wanted to use up some fluffy bits, still got lots left though, all in a tangle again :rolleyes:

    Have good days all and I hope the sun shines where you are
