Lotsa Pics
Ok, so what have I been working on over the last 12 months?В Well there was a crocheted shawl for my Granny, which I of course forgot to take a photo of before I shipped it off.В Then there was the dino quilt that I posted of a few months ago.В I’ve since done a second dino quilt, in different colours, that I’ll post a pic of soon.
I’ve discovered the joys of knitting – basically because I want to do some lace knitting.В I finished off a scarf that has been in the works for ages (not a slow job, I just got bored with just knitting and purling), all I have left to do is to stitch in the yarn ends.
Now I’ve started a lace knitting project, but not just any… estonian lace.В I think I had to restart this about 6 times, but I’ve got the hang of it now 
As for stitching, well I started Rhapsody in Red when I first arrived in Cardiff. This is a pic that I thought I had posted back in July/Aug last year. But since I apparently didn’t, here you go.
And HAEDs… I’ve done some work on Stella and Pumpkin Pixie.
And then the other month I picked up and old WIP, since this year I plan to finish off things rather than just keep starting them.
And at the moment, I’m working on Blackstone Garden
So that’s you all caught up. For the rest of the month, when I’m not knitting I’ll be stitching on Blackstone Garden. Looks like I might have a stitching finish this year after all.

I think I’ll comment on this post :p
hehe
Great to hear how things are going and I would of loved to see the shawl you finished *pout*.
So jealous of all your near finishes. Even with this supposed extra time on my hands my stitching has not been going far fast (and I haven’t had that many new starts. Love love love how your blackstone is turning out and the reds you ended up with for rhapsody look great I don’t think your initial concerns should be worrying you anymore *hugs*
everything looks yummy, i don’t know which one I like best as they are all “wow!” I can see that you just might very well have a finish soon, your blackstone is looking super and that shawl is going to be breathtaking. Love the pattern and the colour!
Wow! Your lace-knitting is amazing! I’ve tried knitting several times. I can crochet. I can cross-stitch. I can count for those, but not for knitting. No matter how hard I try, I just can’t seem to count correctly for knitting. Your work is gorgeous!!
And… welcome back to blogging!! *hugs*
Thanks all.
I’ll try again to find a photo of the shawl. I remember putting it up on couch to take a photo so maybe I just didn’t look far enough back. Or maybe that’s something else I just did in my head
All the work on Rhapsody was done last June I think, I def haven’t touched it since July at the latest. But since I dug it out to take a photo, I’m wanting to work on it again – maybe once Blackstone is finished.
Sue, once I got the hang of it the counting on that lacework was easy – just have to count to 8… over and over
I uploaded a stack of photos to flickr yesterday so my dragontravels blog will be updated next. I probably would have started updating that blog yesterday too but it took me pretty much all day just to do the photos thanks to my internet connection dropping out every 15min
