Ok - showing off a little bit

I finished my Cassandra shawl!!!!! Normally I am the Queen of UFOs!

and this is the next project - Gathering Leaves
using Kauni Effektgarn in the EQ (rainbow) colourway.

A long overdue catch-up

I tried yesterday, but I couldn't get Blogger to work properly. Ah well!
Friday was cake-club at Laura's. It was nice to have Nyree there! I managed to kick the wagon with my little toe and ended up with a purple, poorley foot. humph.
Saturday - Nyree and squidlets came for the afternoon.
Sunday - we did the entire week's shopping on foot using the wagon and trolley! Tilda went for a very short ride on her bike - it hurts her wrists apparently!
Monday - waited for the wagon canopy to arrive. Its really good, but does render the entire thing huge! It certainly makes doors difficult! We took a trip to the chippy to try it out and Tilda sat in the shade to eat hers. I wish I fitted!
Tuesday - I had the dentist in the  morning to replace a filling that has fallen out four times. I think he did a better job this time, but the anaesthetic has worn off now and it feels a bit sore. We collected my parcel of wool from the post office - Kauni Effektgarn EQ. There was a surpise 50g ball of the black/grey colourway in there too and I'm thinking it might look good with the rainbow. hmm.

Tilda has been practising tandem wrapping and we are waiting to hear from Steve. He thinks his retina has yet another tear.

Crochet!

Here is a pic of the bundle of yarn I got for Mother's day.
It is a selection of colours put together by Lucy from  Attic 24
in order to crochet a blanket. I've had a search on Ravelry
and found the Realta Afghan
which I like because the black makes it seem 'punchier' than the Attic 24 ones, so I'm combining the colours with the black. So far I've done two hexgons and three squares, so have a long way to go!
