An afternoon in the New Forest, wandering amongst the semi-wild ponies. This one came to investigate whether my yarn was edible! Needed a portable knit, so I started a sock in some fiery @burrow_and_soar yarn. ❤️

Hospital waiting room sock knitting. Picture one in a series of 7647568 photos. 😉 (Not really! Please don't unfollow!) Just turning the heel. But wowzers, that hurt today. Soft and comforting yarn is by the fabulous @burrow_and_soar. Just what the doctor ordered. 😊

Not allowed to run yet post-surgery, but walking is encouraged. (This is about the tenth iteration of this mitten design, but I think I'm happy with the way it's going now.)

Breakfast time here at Twisted Towers. THANK YOU so so so much for every single one of your kind, warm-hearted, comments and DMs in response to my last post. They were a huge comfort, but also I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by so much love! I'm not sure how to reply to so many, but let me at least begin with this post.

Looooook! That photo I posted of Little Wittenham yesterday? My clever friend @annabelle_jm recreated it in her sketchbook. ❤️ Isn't her version just perfect? She's completely captured the mood of the place. Annabelle, you're a brilliant artist (and so is your sister).

After work (for me and the Stoic Spouse) and a shameful amount of screen-time (the twinnage), I took both boys up to the Ridgeway (truly ancient trail that passes nearby here) so they could run around, or rather gallop along pretending to be horses. No yarn in this picture, because I was feeling so guilty about neglecting the boys all day that I FORGOT TO BRING MY KNITTING when we left the house!

Hospital waiting room knitting, pic 2 in a series of 7647568. 😁 Except today the waiting room is my car because of covid. But I have knitting and green tea, so I'll be FINE here for at least... oh maybe 2 days or so? Happy Friday, people! CHECK YOUR BOOBS (although maybe not right this minute if you're in a meeting at work).

A friend and I are making nettle yarn, and one of the stages is to 'bake' the nettle stems for a few hours. Given this quantity of nettles, I would have needed to keep the oven on for a week! So here's my solution. It's 32°C out there today, and if I leave the car in the sun, I reckon it'll get more than hot enough. Fingers crossed.

Please allow me to introduce you to Wilfred. He (or she) is one of Robyn-the-robin's grandchildren. S/he's currently hiding behind various objects in the garden near his/her one - or possibly two - sibling(s) - also called Wilfred, because they're indistinguishable from each other. (Hmm, maybe I should have taken that approach to naming with my own identical twins...)
.
ANYWAY, I thought you'd like to meet little Wilfred. Robinson and his wife are very proud parents, and they seem to trust me near their precious children, which I'm taking as the greatest honour.

Whenever I run past this lake, I have to stop and peer into its shallows. Today I saw tadpoles, diving beetles, dragonfly larvae, backswimmers, pond-skaters, great pond snails. This definitely didn't help my running, but it was fun. ❤️ ...

Sometimes, you just need a little bit of easy comfort-knitting. This will be a jumper. The yarn is @stylecraftyarns Dreamcatcher and I'm enjoying watching the colour shifts play out.

When you're procrastinating about the things you should be doing, so you get out the blanket you crocheted in 2014 to start weaving in the 4000 ends (NOT an exaggeration) of slippery cotton yarn. Currently working at approximately 120 ends per hour. That means it'll take over 33 hours...

Yesterday, there was a knock on the door. My yarny friend @mandy_reid_art is an artist, and little did I know that she'd been busy painting a portrait of Robyn-the-robin. So when she turned up with the finished work as a gift, I was so overwhelmed with surprise and gratitude that I hardly knew what to say. It's beautiful. It catches her perfectly - sweet but cheeky and feisty. I knew immediately which image Mandy had used as inspiration. The painting is now hanging up in pride of place, and I'm one very happy, grateful, woman. Mandy takes commissions, by the way. Just sayin'...
