Blahs

I’ve realised that it’s getting on for a week since I last posted, and that was just a very brief one. I have been knitting – and I want to post properly about it at some point. I’ve finished one tam, and have made a start on the second one – and I need to get a move on as Agatha Evelyn was born on Sunday morning… (her proud parents dropped in with her at tea-time – she is one very very pretty newborn.)

But even so I seem to have hit both knitting and blogging blahs. Last week was fairly intense work-wise, and I reacted in my usual way – with a migraine. This week, much as I love having another day off work, I’m somewhat discombobulated (I do like that word) by yet another break in the routine.

Still, I had an “I’m not altogether a bad mummy” moment at lunchtime when I made A&R tiger toast (just cheese on toast, but striped with orange and yellow cheeses) and let them eat it in Ruth’s Wendy house.

I’ve joined a KAL – for the Sunrise Circle Jacket – I was relieved to see that other people have used self-striping yarn, and it all works out beautifully – I did have a slight fit as to exactly what would happen on the fronts. Noone else seems to have used the SWT Karaoke that I’m using, so I’ll have to see if it has the necessary firmness when knitted up. But that is resolutely on the back burner until I’ve finished that jacket.

two comments:
