Nobody Home ????

Hasn't it been very quiet on here lately Mirjam? I usually check in at least once a day and very often there have not been any posts since the previous day.

Hallo Bernadette ,,yeah i felt like shouting and hearing my voice echo back !!!! Spent most day weaving ,,,,, i have this Need to try and finnish things ,,,, that are half done ,,, mirjam

Yes, I feel like that some days too!

What have you been weaving and is it on a loom?

Lately I've finished a few things and then started others. Last week was spent sewing curtains for the sitting room. A neighbour goes to all the auction sales and gets some good bargains at times. She brought me some very heavy cotton brocade material in a dark red with a flower and leaf design in cream and beige. It is lovely quality material and there is enough left to make cushions to match. I'm very pleased with them.

Today I managed to complete another 8 rows on the new moebius.

Still working, just taking a break here before I go for my last spurt.

LOLOL Actually, I am in Labrador, caring for the sick. Keith and Kandace are both ill - respiratory infections, manifesting themselves differently in each one. Kandace has croup, and Keith has an infection, which is not nice. I am healthy, but tired.

Higs, Katherine

Hi Mirjam

I check in here every couple of days or so, but the last time I looked, there weren't many posts. It looks like you've had a few replies, so I guess we're still here.

I'm working on two shawls right now, so here are a couple of links to see them:

've also knitted a little teddy bear for a new baby: sounds like you're very busy, as usual. How isyour hand these days? Shelagh

Shelagh I like the Hanami shawl ,, what a patience you have ,, it is PERFECT i also liked the garter st shawl ,,, it is so delicate ,,, and i am in love with the Red Teddy bear !!!!!

My hand is much better i am still doing physio but i work work work thank you for asking this mirjam i am finnishing sweater starting a moebious [yes another one] and thinking about a new vest [sleeveless for ME ,,, mirjam

I'm winding yarn. It was a huge ball at a thrift shop and I thought someone had wound up at least two skeins. If I'd looked more closely I might have noticed that it is recycled from something, probably a sweater. It's nice wool but I'm finding a lot of breaks in it as I reskein it. *sigh* but it was very inexpensive!

=Tamar

And Tamar ?? what do you think you will make from it ? mirjam [just eying an very old sweater ,,],,,

Been sick lately. First flu, then a small break where I had jury duty, and now I'm sick again with bronchitis. Still trying to push things, but I have to stop and rest or I'll never get better.

Hope you heal soon !!!!! put your head on one cushion and your feet on another cloth your eyes ,,,,, HEALING lady comes to you !!!!!HEAL HEAL HEAL she says ,,,, mirjam

I would up a ball like that recently, though the breaks were because my sister's dog got into it! I just put in Russian joins as I went along so that when I get around to working it I won't have to pause.

Glad to hear you got a good deal though. I never seem to luck out on those!

Cheers, LauraJ
