We’re heading towards the end of November and my girls can’t wait to get the Christmas decorations up. I keep telling them we’ve got to wait until the 1st December so not long to go.
Here’s a little round up of my week.
Reading: I’m still reading ‘My not so perfect life’ by Sophie Kinsella. I was thinking of maybe starting an audio book so that I can still read while knitting.
Watching: Blue Planet 2. How fantastic is this programme, it just surprises me each week, the animals are amazing.
Going: On a cold Sunday my girls wanted to go for a walk in park near my parents house so I thought we’d do a good deed for my Mum and take her dog for a walk with us.
As you can see from the photo, the dog was not keen on walking without his mistress – he kept looking back for her and I ended up having to carry him part of the way.
Receiving: This week I received a fabulous parcel from the lovely peeps at Love knitting – some of their new Paintbox sock yarn to try out. I’ll write a review once I use it but so far I can tell you that it’s lovely and soft.
I also placed an order for some Debbie Bliss Rialto wool and from Woolwarehouse for a crochet project I have planned.
That yellow is so zingy!
Crafting: I’ve not been doing much knitting this week however I have finished one of the Easy Lace Socks. The 2nd sock will knit up much quicker now that I can follow my hand written notes that I scrawled on the pattern.
I’ve started the ribbing and will transfer it onto mini circular needles. I’m already thinking about my next pair of socks…. I just want to knit all the things! 😩

I love all your beanies! You guys look fab 😊 I’m excited to hear how the paintbox sock yarn is, it looks awesome!
Love your new yarns! I have been eyeing those Paint Box yarns and look forward to hearing what you think about them. And I have heard the Debbie Bliss yarns are wonderful, though I have not tried them yet. Would like to do the Spicier Life Blanket with the Debbie Bliss yarns someday.
I always, ALWAYS read this as ‘Midweek Raffle’, and I don’t know why! The Paintbox looks fab, but then it always is 🙂
