Allroundcrafter

Okay, here's hoping I'm doing this right. I need to learn how to upload photos, to make this a more interesting place to come to. Gotta GET some photos first, though.

I've also finally started a mystery stole that I'm doing as part of a KAL. I'm doing it in a lovely blue 4ply Perendale, and on 4.5mm needles. I really like this colour, and so far the pattern is behaving itself.
I'm also knitting a shawl from A Gathering of Lace. This is also coming out really nice. Once I get a memory card for my camera, I will take some progress pics, and get them posted here.

Joining a sock group is no help, 'cos it just causes me to have more single socks!!!! But.............I've joined two - or is it three - sock groups. I have no idea of what I'm doing here, so will just ifnish this first post here, and go and do some more knitting on a wrap that I really should have finished months ago, as it is already winter here in New Zealand.

Improving but. . .

 Having COVID, or recover from it is bad enough. But, I am also fighting hayfever - how does that happen?!?!? I have also started a cold sor...
