Sorry I've been absent for so long but it's getting to a very busy time of year in the rugby calendar and fibrecrafts and blogging are having to take second place. It'd be much easier if I didn't have to keep on going in to work!!
Ro and I decided not to go to Twickenham for the EDF Cup final last weekend so I was all set for a quiet weekend at home when I got a 'phone call from her on saturday morning. She'd won two tickets for the game from BBC Radio Leicester!! Had to make haste and get myself down to Leicestershire so that we could get down to London on Sunday. I managed to clear it with my area co-ordinator at SUMA to work a three quarter day on the Monday so I had time to get back from Ro's on the Monday morning. Phew!!! (Oh the boys won the game too hurrah!!!!! First silverware for FIVE YEARS!!)
Other things I did on the Saturday.
All quiet on the knitting front I fear; still halfway through a pair of socks, halfway through a second pair of slippers which I'm knitting with the remainder of the Freedom Spirit but single thread this time rather than double to see if it will shrink more in the felting process (I think it will).
And as an afterthought I bought a skein of Handmaiden Sea Silk that weekend and I'm looking for a pattern for a lacy scarf or stole to knit with it. Any ideas?
