Easy Sunday

        A seed hidden in the heart
of an apple is an orchard invisible.
-Welsh proverb.

I'm having a fairly

cushy day today.

Pixie and Cory are at gokarts,

Brandon has a friend over

and me....I am having

a sewing day.

Last night I stitched up the

black cardigan I knitted while on

holidays.

I had already made this cardigan in

grey and loved it so much, I had to knit

it again in black. My winter wardrobe

centres around black, so I felt that

this cardigan would mix and match.

I have used 8 ply wool and really

enjoyed casting on about 285 stitches

and knitted like mad. The bottom part of

the cardigan is K5, P5, with a crocheted

cord to finish it off. I am a bit

annoyed with myself as I have forgotten

what knitting book I found this pattern in. I will try to retrace my steps and find
the title of the book.

On Saturday I went for a visit to the

lovely Op shop in town and found....

I couldn't believe my eyes. A huge reel of

sock wool. I suppose there are going to be

lots of grey socks around this house!

I found 2 books plus the wool for $4.00.

I also went to visit Bev and exchanged a

paper bag challenge with her. We

have exchanged paper bags with fabric, ric rac

or lace, and 5 buttons. We will make each

other something nice.

I can't wait to see what we both come

up with.

Today is the last day of my holidays and

I'm looking forward to going back

to work. I love staying home and I love

my job, so I have best of both

worlds.

Hope you all have a great week and take care. Kind regards, Anita.
