I have made a start on my next stitching project from my WIP's list...




While watching my beloved rugby I set about a new cast on....

A Hat....

When have I ever knitted a hat....The answer is 'Never'!!!


I'll keep you updated...a nice simple pattern and I quite like the beaded wool too....

I also went to a 'gig' (my husband said I have to say 'gig'....)...at The Adelphi in Hull on Monday evening....We saw Public Service Broadcasting....another new band on me....I have to say I did enjoy it but I wish these bands would come on stage earlier....so way passed my bedtime.....I know....'Get with it Grandma'.....

This is my second 'gig' of the year.....Ohhh get me....

We saw British Sea Power on New Year's Eve at Louth Town Hall....I have to say I do like British Sea Power.....but don't tell my husband as this is one of his favourite bands....

Anyway that's my catch up for another week....


I will check in again next Sunday....

Until then have a lovely week.

Keep safe and warm....


Thank you for taking the time to stop by.

I really do appreciate your visits and lovely, encouraging comments.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

Hi Debbie

A pound lost is good.

Someone once told me that when trying to lose weight imagine any lost weight as lard .. .. it makes you happy to think you have lost all that lard doesn't it!!! LOL!!

Lovely to see your projects.

The cross stitch is beautiful and such a lovely design. Your work is super neat!!

If your weather is anything like ours you will be needing that hat asap!!

Have a good week.

Love Jules xx

Those Little House cross stitches are so sweet. I'm trying to lose weight this year too and my progress is slow but any progress is good. Well done on another pound lost.

Nice knitting and pretty cross stitch finish.
Sounds like you have had a lovely if busy week.
Well done on the 1lb lost

I am loving that little sheep that is such a cute design, I am loving cross stitch at the moment even more that card making and that is saying something, I get so much pleasure out of it and such a reward seeing the finished piece and it is so relaxing, I just end up will piles of cards I donate but the pleasure isn't there anymore, if that makes sense, I look forwards to seeing more hugs Pops x
