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. 😊

I made a simnel cake, because obviously what my family needs right now is more sugar. Also, home-made marzipan is the best. Happy Easter, people!

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.)

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).

Today I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I'm fine, and looking on the bright side, I now have the perfect excuse to lounge on the sofa and knit even more than usual for the next few months. 😁 Normal silliness and yarniness will continue both here and on the blog, because that's just how I roll. Also, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW DIFFICULT IT IS TO CROCHET A BREAST TUMOUR?! I mean, viruses look kinda cute and quirky under the microscope, but breast cancers are just BLOBS. So... I will not be releasing a pattern for this rather rubbish piece of crochet.

If I can turn a heel whilst walking with the twinnage, I can do anything, right? Like, for example, beat this silly uppity little cancerous lump. Right? Yeah?? Maybe???

Robyn-the-robin would prefer that I didn't shove a camera in her face whilst she's busy enjoying today's third breakfast. I can see her point, actually.

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.

Better pics to come on a brighter day, but it's done! My design to reflect how Covid has trampled all over everything this year. Pics show Covid thingies before and after Swiss darning, so you can see how design works. PATTERN AVAILABLE VERY SOON! (Can also be worn as skirt... just about - see final pic.) Yarn is Stylecraft Highland Heathers.

Hello far-too-lovely folk. This one's about Robyn-the-robin. I haven't seen her for quite a while... and the last few times she visited, she really looked her age. Sorry to be the bearer of probably-bad news, but I think she's gone forever. 😢 And much as I like to think my heart is cold and impregnable, I really, really, REALLY miss her bold and cheeky attitude. I loved her more than was probably wise.

Erm, excuse me young lady, but you know you're not supposed to come into the house. Her latest trick is to come in and stand on the tub of mealworms whilst we're having a meal, staying there until someone feels guilty enough to get up and feed her.

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.

It's been handed over to its recipient now, so I can show you the finished object. I was aiming for a vaguely vintage look, since it's for a friend to hang in her shepherd's hut.

In today's edition of never-not-knitting, I had a spare half hour between appointments in Oxford, so I went to #wolvercotelakes. Love this place, but I hadn't been for ages. Lots of dragonflies and damselflies and butterflies.

OK then, here are the grapevine socks that I designed for the latest knitting box by @littleboxofcrochet . I also designed some striped socks, in case stranded isn't your thing.

Amanda is a genius at putting together exquisitely beautiful boxes full of beauty and treats. It's been a big yarny honour to design for her.

Just time for a couple of rounds of the new skirt colours before I begin work.

I think Robyn might be sulking because I didn't come out the second she appeared at the window. So now I'm sitting out here with her breakfast and she's elsewhere.

Nobody will ever replace Robyn-the-robin, but this young-looking chap has begun following me round the garden yelling at me, and he's LOUD. He hasn't fed from my hand yet, but his cheeky confidence makes me wonder whether he's one of Robyn's children.

It's soooo good to be running again, especially as I've developed a nasty side-effect (cording) in my arm. But I think they must have surgically removed all my fitness as well as the cancer because I'm PLODDING! (PS: I'm not really this short, but I was trying for an arty angle.)
