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.

Occasionally you just have to put your feet up and crochet some bunting. (Pattern for granny triangles from @attic24, then I added a few details.)

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).

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.

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.

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. ❤️ ...

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.

Right, that's the knitting done. Now to finish a bit of strategic Swiss darning before I show you the finished cowl with a rather surprising design element, and publish the pattern. I've loved working with Stylecraft Highland Heathers*.

*Which I didn't pay for. But I've genuinely loved it anyway.

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.

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'...

Nope, you haven't got rid of me yet! 😁😁😁 This pic is from yesterday, three days post-surgery, walking three miles very slowly. I'm mostly dozing, or walking, or saying "Yes you can get yourself another fourteen biscuits" to the twinnage. Not really knitting yet. (I know, I know, call an ambulance right now!) THANK YOU for all your kind comments and messages. BYE BYE CANCER!
