Have a bit of a cold and feeling sorry for myself so I didnt go to zumba this morning, and it has made the day drag a bit (son2 constantly asking to watch tv). Also, I am feeling a bit home sick. My friend from Kuwait (!!??) skyped unexpectedly the other day and it was lovely to speak to him. I was feeling particularly home sick that day so it was so nice to speak to a loved one and see them in person. Most people we skype dont seem to have their cameras set up or working, so they see us but we dont seem to see anyone from home. :-( As a result I have been day dreaming and checking calendars to see if we can conceivably schedule an unscheduled trip home, but its not looking promising, even if we could afford it! So I am sitting out the back in the sun, which is helping, and crochetting my zig zaggy blanket, progress on which as slowed as the zig zaggy bits seem to be cancelling themselves out and are looking decidedly straight. Anyhow, because no zumba this morning I dragged the weans to my LYS to replenish my stock of purple so I may continue my zig zaggery. Rather naively I said I didnt want my skein wound into a ball, I havent bought much wool like this before and thought, romanically that it might be nice not to be wound. Now, it is a tangled mess, made worse as I am in the garden and there is a slight breeze. So, new lesson learnt, say yes when asked if you want your skein wound.
PS yesterday, this is what we made...
Yay!
Am going to try to make it again at the weekend for a wee get together we are going to. Glad I got to do a test run though :-)
