It's the simple things sometimes ...

... that can bring about happiness and contentment

For me ....
  • A drop in temperature of 15C and most importantly about the same drop in humidity
  • Months and months and months (could even be years) of searching patterns and I think I may have just found what I am looking for
  • And just as importantly long-stored yarn in stash which is exactly what I need for this project
  • To once again have a hook in hand and not have the yarn stick E-V-E-R-Y single stitch
I have worked one pattern repeat and so far - I AM IN LOVE
Already planning another!

And that all came together over one day

  5. Oh I do know that sticky needle feeling. My count down starts at the beginning of Summer. Ony about a month to go now to the bearable weather - Yay!!
    Try a shake of talc on your hands. I find it helps a lot.

  6. That is one VERY good day! Would love a day like that! Can't wait to see/hear more about this pattern... is it for a shawl? My mum asked me to make her one and I'm still searching for a pattern that would be "just right".

    Enjoy your good fortune!

    i love that feeling. I'm not quite ready for it to cool down just yet though.
    Can't wait to see the perfect pattern.
    And I love the little cardi from the last post. Very cute.
