Friday Night with Friends- August

I did join in with Cheryll and all the other Friday night friends for a little bit of crafting. I really should get started earlier in the afternoon because I struggle to stay awake to get much crafting done in the evenings. My father in-law once told me I keep children's hours and I think he might have been right. My children though have always been able to stay up later then me. I like going to bed early, I wake up early.


Anyway. I did a little crochet. Just finishing off a scarf that I started quite some time ago. I hadn't bothered until now to finish it because the winters have become so mild that a scarf is hardly ever necessary. But... I am going to be travelling to cooler climes in the not too distant future and the added warmth will be necessary.


I found a quick and easy cowl pattern (crochet or knitted) in a library magazine and will make that up in this ball of Icelandic wool. I haven't started that yet but it really shouldn't take too long particularly if I take the crochet option. The Icelandic wool is really nice and chunky but can be a bit scratchy. It will do and it is good to use up what I have here.

Until next time. Hopefully I can get into some sort of regular writing habit again.

Hard to believe that another month of 2019 has passed by. It has though and with that it means it is time for Friday Night with Friends again. I don't know what I will be doing but I do intend to include a little bit of creativity and crafting in my evening. Maybe just some mail art as I try to catch up on my correspondence.



I took part in Cheryll's Christmas in July swap. I was partnered with Illene who was very generous and sent me lovely gifts. And definitely hit the mark with my favourite colour, blue.



My new bag is really pretty and very handy. Thank you Cheryll and Illene.

Now I just have to make sure I take the time to check back in later/ tomorrow with any crafty progress I make. Until then,
