Saturday night knitting spot |
What's up with the weather? Four days of lovely sunshine and today's temperature was 21 degrees, perfect. Perfect for a spot of knitting in the garden. I bought some Louisa Harding Akiko yarn last week, it's beautiful, soft and the colour is just lovely - denim meets Aqua. It's knits up well and the blackberry stitch beanie is just perfect, soft and snugly. You can find the pattern

I'm off to the Broads in October and although I've already knitted two of these for myself, it's always good to have a new colour and it looks great in the sunshine.

knitting in the garden |
I've now gifted the latest granny stripe blanket to my niece Megan who's off to Bath next week to start her first year in uni. She loved the blanket which was such a relief, I've been making it on and off for almost six months alongside my granny square blanket and I managed to finish both of them in the same week. I'm sitting under mine tonight as it's chilly now.

farmers market |
The local farmers market is still around and I showed my support this morning buying home made pies from my friend Linda and local veg - it's pie and mash for dinner today (yummy) oh and some cakes for later. I'm looking forward to the next one in October.
