End of the week, but not the end of the rain!
Its still pouring down, even as I type tonight.
Pip spends a lot of time sensibly snugged up in blankets.
There was a short time this afternoon where the rain left off so I ducked outside to see if the chooks were paddling about and give them some food, stock up on firewood, collect the eggs plus I also jumped the back fence to go pick up another bag of pine cones
I also hunted up a fresh cabbage as I made a stir fry for dinner tonight. Nice to have a couple of fresh things left in the garden.
I spent most of my free time today continuing on my crochet project of a hooded cardigan
From this snap you can see how the folded hexagon shape (the star) creates one half of the cardigan.
Tonight I have sewn up the sleeves, added the hood and now lengthening both the sleeves and the overall length with whatever yarn I have left. Its heavy and cosy.
I don’t want to go to bed. I want to keep working on it!! I have never made something so big thats wearable. Bit keen to finish!
Anyway… Pip continues to snore in his blanket… I am heading back to the couch
Hope everyone has an awesome weekend planned
Cheers
Mr.Pip sure looks mighty toasty n warm wrapped in his covers. Hope the sunshines soon for you. Your crochet is sooo pretty can’t eait to see it finished. We’re having stir fry tonight but I don’t have your lovely cabbage!!oh can you sell the pine cones with daffodils?? I think you can. Hope you have a grand weekend and get plenty of rest.loved the pics of your mom n dad in Japan. Love Linda
These days I would rather be with Pip under toasty covers! 🙂 We got a little sun on our walk this afternoon – still got rained on though!
Never thought about selling the pine cones… Wouldn’t hurt to try. Still haven’t put the daffys out… too windy as yet. Might not get the chance at this rate!
Glad you liked the Japan pics… hope to get another lot out soon! xx
That cardigan is so clever! Must teach myself to crochet. Maybe over the winter…
It is a clever pattern! So easy too. I can wear it now even though its not finished but I like to keep putting it on to see how its going!
Crochet isn’t so hard – I think its easier than knitting. The great thing is you can make a lot of things with a few basic stitches. I like that!!
(Youtube is your friend but I think its better to start with someone showing you in real life first!)
