Winter is coming

 The temperatures are certainly dropping. Although it is sunny there is a distinct chill to the air. So glad we have our new dryer, in time for the cooler days, and the washing not getting dry in one day.

So, I really need to work on the Log Cabin. The shwl will just have to wait for a little while. I have put Iona on the bed, because the nights are just a tad cold.  I am actually thinking of either making another Iona, or turning one of Lucy Hague's cushion patterns into squares for another blanket. Each square would have to be done in one colour, but that isn't really a problem. It's really just to decide whether to do it in 4-ply, or should I use Double knitting? Probably need to take a look through my stash first, before I make a decision. I should have enough wool of each to make a blanket. Maybe I can do both? Two blankets would be interesting. Would show how a pattern can work up in different plies of wool. Hmmm...that is rather a nice thought. Watch this space.

Winter is not good for me

Winter is nice, but it is not good for my chest. It isn't even all that cold today, but for some reason my asthma is really playing up. ...
