diary

one week

I've been inspired by Sandra Juto and have taken up a neck worm style project so I can have a break from knitting complex patterns.

I've given myself the rule that I have to change colour every day so the finished piece will end up being a bit like a knitting diary. The sequence above shows a week's work. I expect my progress to slow a bit from now on.

...especially now I have a proper job. Career woman.

i love this Deb! so pretty! I was thinking of doing the same kind of thing, maybe I should finish the 2 crochet blankets I have on the go.

WHere you working now?
Hope you're well xx

Thanks Lucy!

I'm trying to keep a few projects on the go now to avoid boredom so I'd definitely recommend you starting a new one - it is almost winter time after all.

I'm working at the same place but am now a proper employee rather than freelance (this means holiday pay!!). I still have Fridays off for arts and crafts though.

How's the greeting cards business treating you?

I love this also! Where do you get your wool? I want some really chunky wool that is good quality but not expensive.

Congrats on permanent employment ;-)
