A new project that I started on Friday on a whim, propelled by the need to rest a while from the HAP edging…
This project makes me very happy indeed. We are past the mid-point and it seems likely that we will see this scarf again this week – so long as it dries in time for beauty shots.
The colour in the photograph is not good – the yarn (Knit Picks Shimmer in Fennel) is much greener than it appears here.
- Joshaqan sock – no progress since last Wednesday
- Senneh sock — queuing still behind Joshaqan
- Hap shawl – edging still poised to turn the second corner
- Orange Pencil Roving – barely made progress at the weekend
- Corriedale/Romney – ditto
- Red swirly thing – glaring balefully at me from its place in the UFO heap
I need to ply the orange thing as Gill wants the Traveler to play with for a while so… I’ll take it to spinning group today instead of the raw fleece spinning that I had hoped to be doing at the demo. I shall most likely put both wheels in the car, so I have both projects to hand.
We’ve had a Cake Disaster – the result of my trying to be clever yesterday afternoon. I made a kind of chocolate ginger pancake. Would most likely be very good with custard upon it but… sigh.
OK – the coming week has few targets as Super Secret Things are afoot. However:
- Ply orange singles
- Complete the plying of the Zwartble/Mohair project
- Finish Icing
- Finish Hap edging
- Wash and block Hap and Icing
That’s actually a lot to fit in around the Secret Stuff. I think I can do it — despite being sent to town on Friday (beer supplies are endangered) and classes commencing on Tuesday. (I never learn, do I?)
