It was never my intention to stop blogging for so long, but life got in the way. And once I got out of the habit, it became difficult to get back in again. Life got in the way of knitting as well, and I have a number of projects waiting to get finished. This is old projects waiting for finishing before life got in the way. I was too stressed to knit anything but my standard blanket. Again I wonder why I insist on doing difficult blankets and garments when the thing I enjoy the most is my standard blankets...
The next blanket # 193 became pink and green, and the colours really make it. As before I just try to use up yarns in a similar tone, and I didn't expect the pink and greens to be so prominent. No harm done.
I unravelled the next of my Susan Duckworth entrelac or basket stitch sweaters. There was a lot of nice Rowan DK wool, in my kind of colours. I enjoy unravelling entrelac. I have one more of these sweaters, but the next one is going back to a charity shop, come autumn, because the angora yarn in it has shrunk with washing, and unravelling would involve cutting and frustration and wasting yarn.
