Finally a complete day off after working 16 straight. We don't get OT that often and wasn't going to do it until I got the Electricity bill about $200 more than expected. Then DH got put off last week so back to it tomorrow . Had been trying to do some fingerless gloves with the cover so look like mittens but made one and couldn't really make sense of how to stitch it together nicely, so have gone for a simple mitten, birthdays coming up for a few people in a few weeks , made one in a day (and worked) so think I'll stick with this.

Where's The Time
Since daylight savings finished seem to have no time. Did crochet a star blanket to go with the teddy and jumper and delivered to the baby shower.
Working on a knee high pair of socks just in breaks at work, so slow. In Moda Vera Noir but nice purples.
Been working a design for a ballet wrap, but hard to stay motivated as want to make a proper pattern. So have even been swatching (pic proof). Been looking for a good edge that doesn't roll. Thought I'd do an I-
Cord but when looking out a pattern found another which will do the trick. Know how I'm doing the ties. Just need the work amounts of stitches with yarn and gauge I'm using, hopefully the decrease edging will be ok.
Borrowed these book from the library. Think I will ask for the Custom Knits 2 and it's prequel for my birthday. They're about making and converting patterns to top down and seamless, just how I like things. Was hoping to do the wrap this way but it's not to be. Will be one piece though.
Was working on a crocheted toddler owl hat , but did not realise did not have white and black in same yarn for eyes , a cotton acrylic blend, might cheat and use acrylic.
