I Found Wally!

Hmm.  Blogger what have you done to my picture?
Why is it so small?
I used the same device and settings that I always use but for some reason my image has shrunk!
Grrr Blogger!
Anyway grumbles aside this image is all I have to show for a weeks worth of crafting.
I have made some more of my Windy blocks and added them to the pile but aside from that I have mostly been busy with my crochet.
I'm using a basket full of yarn that I scored in a local Facebook page and also some that I scored at work.  The resulting blanket will go to work and keep someone warm.

While my hands were busy hooking I was watching TV. The famous Isle of Man TT races have just taken place and Tony and I watched keenly. We do miss the races. This year we were watching the crowds as well as the bikes. We were looking for a very distinctive hat and jacket.
And we spied the jacket on the very last day.
See over there in the crowd, just above the greeny yellow M, there is a pair of lime green arms, holding up a red phone to take a photo......
That is our very own Janice. The writer of Jannimary blog and current tourist on the island of my birth my home for 45 years. 
In a recent post Janice asked, Where's Wally?
I found Wally!
I didn't manage to see Micks hat though, but I'm sure he wasn't far away.

There you have it, that's my news.
I'm off work with a very sore throat at the moment. Maybe that will give me more sewing time! 
I'm off to see if my brain can cope with cross stitch today.

hope the throat improves...big change from isle of man to NZ wasn't it? is it rural where you live now as well? i can't imagine there are any big cities where you came from are there?

When I clicked on each image it came up large and I could actually see Janice too.

Blogger seems to have a mind of its own and often very contrary!! You are making wonderful progress with your blanket. I too have that pattern and some wool to make it - one day!! Good spotting of Wally AKA Janice! Just as well she had a bright colour on.

Clicking on the image of your crochet made it fill the screen! so we can see clearly! Sorry to hear about the sore throat - hope it clears up quickly although not before you have had a chance to get some stitching done! xx

Yay for you to spot Wally. Good job.
Some weeks crafting have less to show than others.

I cannot believe that you found her on tv. Wow! You were really looking hard! There is proof of where Janice was for sure.

A week's worth of crochet I presume? Good on ya. Each week is what it is.

Sorry to read that you are sick, get well soon. What a surprise to see a picture of Janice at the races, amongst the crowds, no wonder you are feeling a little homesick.

How amazing you could find Janice in the crowd!

we can't argue with Blogger- it is its own master!

Great spotting!!! And a great start to your ripple blanket. I love that design of Attic 24 - have made one and one day will make another.
