Two steps forward, one step back...
I've been trying hard to finish some of my many projects, and I was good, I did manage to get two done, but then I was sucked in by the lure of lace, and started a new project. But thankfully it was a quick knit, and that's finished too.

Two down, twelve to go....
I've finally finished (more or less) uploading at least basic details of all my projects and stash to Ravelry, and, tormented by those fourteen works in progress on my projects page, have taken advantage of the warm weather and spent some time in the garden with my knitting.

I finally found a copy of the summer edition of Interweave Knits in Borders on Thursday lunchtime, and glanced through it at my desk during the afternoon. I was quite disappointed with the patterns, the only thing that caught my eye was the Montego Bay scarf, which looked like a perfect holiday project.

Birthday yarn!
It was my birthday on Wednesday, so I treated myself to a visit to Bobbins in Whitby. I wanted to buy some Colinette Prism to make the Melinda cardigan from the Wayfarer book - I nearly bought some the last time I was there, but they only had five skeins in the colour I fancied, and it takes six. They offered to order in the extra skein and post it ( Read more... )
