I think it’s fair to say that the sum total of my productivity today has been filling out some forms for Littler for school, and finishing off a sock. I’ve otherwise been huddling in the conditioned air poking at games. Which, to be fair, that’s fine, it’s Monday. Self-care and relaxation is the true agenda, so yanno… job done. Having… Read more »
For the current pair of socks I am knitting, I finally had to suck it up and learn how to do short rows. I had tried my hand at it previously when I was fiddling with some stuff, but I couldn’t get my head around it. Thankfully, Bill Souza makes really good videos for left-handed people. It was done for… Read more »
Today was the Village Fun day, so we popped down for a little bit. The girls rode the teacups, and the go-carts, and then we opted for an ice cream. Smalls had her own, but Littler got to a point where she was trying to feed it to all of us. It was a nice little trip out, outside of… Read more »
I’ve finished the knitting of the hat, but I keep cacking up the sewing slightly. It’s not the end of the world because it’s not like it takes that long, but it’s still annoying. It also doesn’t help that I ‘have’ to do it top to bottom to get it to line up right and make the top look properly… Read more »
First thing this morning, I finished the last few stray ends of my blanket. I realised I was almost done when I went to bed, but opted to… well, go to bed. It’s currently tucked up in the chair on Z’s side of the bed, waiting for when it’s actually needed. And of course, since I’m supposed to be doing… Read more »
I decided I was going to try to focus my efforts on getting the blanket finished. It takes up a lot of space in my crafting area, so getting it done and moved off would be a Good Thing™®. It’s pleasant to look upon and I was starting to get a good pace before we hit dinnertime. Hopefully I can… Read more »
Z took my booking form for the school fete in today. The cost per exhibitor is £10, plus a raffle prize. He suggested I make something, so I’m going to whip up a cat hat to donate. So that’s another project on the needles. I also have an increasingly full shopping basket on eBay, as I definitely need more beads…. Read more »
I made myself sit down and get started on weaving in the ends. I’m going to be at it for some time, but it always goes more quickly than I think it’s going to once I get a start. Of course, it would help if I don’t lose my needle… Today has been a balance between bits of self-care, and… Read more »
As of today, all of the squares are joined! Woo! Now, there’s only… weaving in hundreds of ends… doing a border… possibly sewing a back on… oh okay, there’s a lot of work left, but it still feels good to be ‘done’ for the moment. I might start weaving in some of the ends tonight, but there’s an equally strong… Read more »
As it stands right now, I have one row and a ‘square’ remaining on the main work of my blanket. I should probably buckle down and get it done, but Skyrim. *chuckles* It’s been really nice getting back into it and being reminded of why the memes are hilarious (not that I had forgotten per se, but they’re a bit… Read more »
