IPad help required

I require advice / assistance / guidance please

My computer is feeling very tired and most times now the screen will not wake up

So temporarily my iPad is my only form of Internet communication

Is there any way for me to blog easily (very easily) via iPad?

Hope your all having a great day

Yarn Shop Video

This link was shared on Knit 4 Charities group

And I just had to share it

Just wish our shops were like this one

Have a wonderful weekeend

Blogger Moderation

Just a quick post from me

Not really a whinge but an explanation

Some of Blogger's moderation requirements are totally ridiculous

One post I tried to comment on

The first square was almost totally black with a tiny little glimmer of white, only when you really stared at it - this is where the number is suppose to be

And as for some of the letters - some run so much together, that it is pure guess work if I get it right or wrong.

I am reading your lovely blogs

But may not be commenting

But I do TRY!

I do understand why it is there

But they could at least give us a chance to read what we are suppose to be typing in!!!

Sights and Wonders

Just a couple of photos of our short break away in the Megalong Valley at Kanimbla, Blue Mountains

The sunset view

 

Our friendly neighbours

And some small projects.

Not much done, as I found the view entrancing

Wool at top is Bendigo Classic 8ply – Pumpkin, Aztec, Raven, Smoke & Brick Red

The other wool is a long held, but now used stash – Yeah!!!

Baby Vintage Patterns

Do you remember this?

The Chickadee Vest with Mods

 

Well, I decided to re-visit this pattern and actually work the pattern it’s suppose to have

I again modified the pattern a little – Chickadee Singlet

The original does have the rib hem, I worked garter

And the lacy bit is supposed to be in garter.  When I tried that it just reminded me of a beginner knitters project with holes  .  I also knew I was limited in the amount of cotton I had, as you can see by the contrast crochet around the neckline and armholes – I ran out. So I tried it in stocking stitch.  Much prefer it that way

Yarn used is Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Cotton Daffodil (so very soft) on 3.75mm needles

Pattern worked up about 3-6mths size

 

The pattern is from this old Patons booklet

Have a lovely weekend

Here is another singlet I made from this pattern book

Again with mods :-0

Heartbreaker, again with mods (worked a lace border on bottom and in the round)

Again from Bendigo Woollen Mills 8ply Cotton New Ochre on 3.75mm

 

 

I’m off for a romantic, freeze-your-butt-off holiday.

Will tell you about it on my return – maybe
