Maybe a touch too much

This is the view I had from the couch this week.

On the table there is a Baktus, the Moonfleet shawl and a crochet shawl. By the TV there is another shawl, a sock and hidden behind that a spindle. Below the TV is the Swirl shawl and a square in progress for the Wolhemel blanket. The basket you see besides that has no project at this moment. The rest of the projects are upstairs. Waddaya mean, a lot on the needles?

I have started again with my Moonfleet shawl. In October the next KAL is starting for which I signed up without blinking an eye. It might be a good idea to finish this one. It just isn’t going real fast because of all the beads.

But it sure is pretty.

Knitting in Nature 3

This year I went on the same knitting vacation as the last two years. The activities are the same, the workshop differ each year. You’d think I’d know it by now, doing the same thing each year. And yes, I do. The whole experience is still amazing and I had a wonderful vacation yet again.

What does change is the amount of pictures I take. Absolutely none, not one single picture taken by me that whole week. What I can show is something I made for the Tour de Fleece that is happening on Ravelry right now. I had honestly expected that this would take me the full three weeks to do. I guess I really surprised myself here.
