The year is half way gone!
How did that happen?
This month Deanna has selected number 9 for the chookshed challengers. For me that means I have to make a start on an eye spy quilt top.
I have a bundle of fabrics cut ready, I just need to sort out sashing fabrics.

Problem is... I am really enjoying working on my Down in the Garden stitcheries. My hexies are calling I've acquired another incomplete cross stitch and yesterday not one but two squirrels hopped by.....
I've acquired a bunch of crafty magazines and in the bundle was a pattern for a sweater that my lovely mum made for me back when I was 16-17. I loved it, I wore it out, the elbows were gone and I remember asking Mum if she could fix it. Alas the reply was no.
But here is that very same pattern, in the very same shade of yarn.....
Loulee wants another one!
Mum is no longer here, so I will have to knit my own.
Then Tony got in on the act, he would love a cosy winter jersey please if I'm in the mood to knit..... So I started to look at patterns and yarn for him too. I need more projects like I need a hole in my head, but my fingers are itching for my knitting needles. LOL
Sigh, what's a girl to do?
PULL HER FINGER OUT AND GET SOMETHING FINISHED!
That's what I'm telling myself anyway.
I'm off to drool over pretty mohair yarns.....

That is a gorgeous Jumper Lou. Those squirrels can be pesky things indeed (!!) 😉
Mohair is lovely and warm....I am wearing a mohair jumper as we speak, made from NZ mohair.
You’re going to have some fun knitting. Sounds like me. Always starting new things. Variety is the spice in life
That jumper does look delicious! Hard to resist. xx
