Today is going to be a little rushed as I am just writing this before my mum arrives! I'm so looking forward to her visit, she hasn't been down to see us since Easter! We saw her in June but it's nice to have her at our house! So she should be arriving in the next hour, so I'm going to write this then head over to Tami's blog to catch up with some other wips until my mum gets here.
So here is my wip for today
I have done some of Eva's cardigan but not enough to warrant a photo I'm afraid, hopefully I'll have something better to show you next week!
Sorry today's wips are a bit boring, I've just been so busy this last week, we've had the husband's parents staying, were away for the weekend at a wedding and my mum arriving today, so I feel like all I've been doing is changing sheets! Anyway that will do for me and fingers crossed for a better knitting week this week!
Happy knitting xx
P.S. Don't forget to pop over to Tami's, use the link above!
It's looking great :) I know what you mean about busyness getting in the way of knitting though
ReplyDeleteIn response to your comment on my blog - yep, read all of Brookmyre's books - and the one you mentioned happens to be my favourite!
It's progressing beautifully!!!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your mum when she gets there and don't worry about the knitting; it'll be there after she leaves.
Enjoy your visitors while they're around; there's always time to knit later.
ReplyDeleteYour sweater's looking great! Enjoy having time with your mum. :D
ReplyDeleteIt progressing well. Sometimes knitting needs to take a back seat.
ReplyDeleteHi Mum! Enjoy your stay. Have a blast with your Mum, there is nothing better.
ReplyDeleteOh...just put all else aside and enjoy the visit with mum. My DD just moved far away and I would love to be visiting her. I am sure you mum is looking forward to the visit as well!
ReplyDeleteLove the rectangles, they show up great, but was is a tie top? I've never heard that terminology.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments, mum and I are having a good time, not much knitting done yet just chatting!
ReplyDeleteSandy - a tie top is just a regular top but at the bottom at the front in the middle there is two long pieces that you tie together in a knot! Hope that explains it!
The knitting looks really lovely and you sound like you are having some lovely time with your family, Enjoy Sam!!xx
ReplyDeleteWow, this is going to be an absolute beautiful piece! Great job!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I have a fun giveaway going on now, I would love to have you check it out--

Its awful when life gets in the way of crafting. Or at least so I think ;) Looking good though!
ReplyDeleteHave fun with mum and make sure you post the finished item!
Have fun with your Mom. I would love to visit with mine. :) That's really beautiful, love the pattern. Can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteReally appreciate you linking up this awesome post at the Creative Bloggers' Party & Hop :)
