Crafts - June 2022

The cross stitch of Tenby harbour is progressing well, and should be finished next month:



In addition I stitched a bookmark for a friend's birthday



and a birthday card for The Daughter's birthday



 From now on I will be more knitting.  We saw son and family a couple of weeks ago and I mentioned that if Mini Hobbit would like something knitted for Christmas then I would need to start soon to allow myself plenty of time.  The instant request was for a turquoise cardigan with a mermaid on it.  Fortunately the website where I order my yarn from had a sale the following day, so I promptly ordered the yarn and have made a start.



I have completed two more squares for my throw (London and Peking):

One's of the beach, which I quite like and the other one shows some of the beach-side shops.

The mermaid looks reasonably straightforward. I'm planning on having a blue wavy line at the bottom for waves.

There's only so much time in each day. I find that some days I do more knitting and some days more cross stitch, depending on my mood and whether I need to get something finished.

They sound appealing!

I hope she goes smoothly. Your wave idea sounds just right.

I have trouble getting up in the morning and getting going, then in the evening I'm still sorting and labelling files on my computer, clearing out duplicates while I watch TV. Too many things to do, no enough hours in the day =(
