Still on holidays
I'm still on holidays, but I wanted to put up a quick post so that the front page isn't totally blank!
It's been a great trip so far, much knitting has been achieved, yarn has been purchased and places visited. There's been good weather, woeful weather, family and friends.
Tomorrow we leave Surfers Paradise, and head to Nundle for the final leg of our trip. We'll visit the Wool Mill, and get home again on Sunday night.
I think I'll need two more weeks to recover.
And just to add some colour, I've ripped off an idea from Bells, RoseRed and DrK, and made a mosaic of my finished projects for 2009 (33, counting the Lace Kerchief, which is technically finished, just not blocked yet)
1. Lacy Kerchief scarf, 2. Venezia, 3. Twinkletoes with Twinkie, 4. Gail(Nightsongs), 5. Mingus, 6. Entrelac Socks, 7. Poppy, 8. Swirl scarf, 9. Sophie, 10. Elijah, 11. Firestarters, 12. Em's Cabled Hoodie, 13. Rick socks, 14. One Row Scarf, 15. February Teddy Sweater, 16. Urbanista, 17. BFF socks, 18. Pink Hoodie, 19. Emily Selbu Modern, 20. Scrunchable Scarf, 21.

Posted by: drk at January 3, 2010 09:26 AMHi, I'm sorry I've not been to "see" you for ages, time just seems to have flown by this year and I've not had a great deal of time to get on the computer.
Anyway...haven't you been busy! Amazing!
Was thinking of you during Christmas, while we have all this snow and freezing weather!
Happy New Year to you all xx
Happy New Year! You really made so many beautiful projects in 2009 - amazing!

Just finishing both Autumn Rose and Venezia in one year deserves a knitterly award - so admirable. And overall, this is such an impressive output for the year.
