Spring has sprung.

It's been a beautiful day here today, in fact all last week and this the weather has been fantastic. The sun is shining, the birds are singing and all is well with the world. Can you tell I'm off work for two weeks, but boy does the time fly! In the garden the plants are starting to grow again too. This little pieris (sp?) was a cutting that was put in 3 years ago and it's just about to burst into flower, gorgeous!
On the knitting front today was a breakthrough moment, I turned my first heel, with no frogging needed. I am loving this - it's Priscilla's Dream Socks from Favourite Socks , which I'm making in Artesano Alpaca in Lourie. This is my first trip into socks but I can see how peeople can get addicted.


Already planning my next project, I'll keep you posted.

Take care x.

A fresh start...

Well this is to be a new home. For some time I have had my papercraft/art blog (click the link if you fancy a look) but I don't want to clutter it up with musings, anecdotes and more especially my knitting stories so a new second home it is then.

As I am on holiday from work for the next week I will get this up and running as best I can but please stop by often. =o)
