Monday

Went to lys today. Very dangerous, because it is the sort of knitting shop which has lots of lovely posho wool beautifully displayed, and hides the acrylic in a dark corner. Bought this



Which is merino and mohair, but feels like it has silk in it. It doesn't feel like a bulky weight wool but it is, which is fab cos I wanted it for a shalom for me! It will be the first actual garments I have knitted for myself



I need to knit as fast as possible cos I can really only afford one ball at a time! So I need to finish before she sells any more, otherwise it will be a rainbow cardi.

Blocked my first snowflake (from attic 24) last night. Decided to use cotton and a 3mm hook (ouchie) and was regretting it, but now it's blocked I like it and it feels like it won't lose it's shape.



Also today:



A crisp, almost wintry school run



Drawing with doggie (my heart melted at this)



The only way to eat mash.
