I have finished knitting The Sunny Days Shawlette, what an enjoyable pattern! I loved knitting this shawl but when I reached the contrasting colour, that’s when the real fun began, it was very exciting! (Yes, I am a knitting geek, contrasting yarn colours within a project make me happy!) I used yak for the contrast and I think it worked well. I will be gifting this shawl to my niece soon, I started knitting it for her past birthday. I’m without knitting at the moment, it doesn’t feel right to just sit and have nothing to keep my hands busy, I think I need a new project, yes… definitely!
I had both cats following me around today while I was taking shawl photos, they were chasing one another around the garden and we managed to get a few shots of them, Erin took the photos of Charlie, the marmalade boy. Delilah is eight months old now, full of mischief and seriously knows what she wants, she’s the long-haired tortoiseshell.
Jen has one more exam tomorrow and then she’s finished for this term, when I compare how stressed we were for the March exams to how smooth it feels now, I can see that this year of work is getting easier, she is settling into her studies and we have found the most wonderful physics tutor just up the road form where we live, she has helped Jenna so much. Khan Academy is also a tremendous help and of course Master Maths is just amazing. I feel so much gratitude and I really do believe that when you need help and ask questions, the answers do eventually come…
Happy Yarn Along, joining with Ginny today:)
