New acquisition

Victoria

See here the Victoria S96 cozy between her sisters (or are spinning wheels male?). In February I decided that I wanted a travel wheel to take places. Because I’m turning 40 this year I thought that this would be a perfect birthday present for myself. After I decided which wheel I wanted it took 5 weeks to order. The idea was to wait longer before spending so much money. That didn’t really work :)

I’ve used it daily. All my projects suffer greatly from this. Maybe it’s a good thing that I’m on vacation next week. That way my fingers and the wheel will get a break. Good thing I have managed to finish something. Even the totals aren’t as bad as expected considering the little I’ve done.

In the month of April I knitted 5 balls with a total length of 827 yards and a total weight of 8.7 ounces.

There were 16 projects in my project bin. Four projects are done and three are on the needles. I finished 42 of the 64 blocks for my Wolhemel blanket.
