It’s great to join in with you all for Friday Night with
Friends. I’ve joined Lynette Anderson’s
mystery block of the month button club - Chateau Hexagon and last night I
worked on my first block. My eyes wouldn’t
stay open any longer before it was finished though so I’ve sat in the sunshine
this morning and finished it - yay! I’m
so pleased with it and I’ve got month two already so I’m keen to work on that
one now. Here it is:
My faithful friends are never far away and here they are supervising:

I’m also doing some knitting and I
did a few rows last night too. I haven’t
knitted for myself for years and years but I saw a pattern for a vest that I
really liked and it’s knitted with chunky wool on big needles so I thought I’d
give it a go. If you would like to look
at the pattern just Google Patons Inca
Book 1294 (it's the one on the front cover). It’s knitted in strips
and this is what I’ve done so far:
It has quite a cool quilted look to it. I actually can’t knit for too long
as I find it really hard on my hands with the big needles so it’s just as well
that it knits up really quickly. It’s
going to be super warm when it’s finished.
Here’s hoping that I actually get it finished before winter is over.
I hope you enjoyed your evening as much as I did and I’m looking forward to looking at what you've been doing. I always find it greatly inspiring.

ReplyDeleteYour supervisors are doing a great job there, they need a pay rise!! Just love that knitting stitch and thanks for showing were you found it.
ReplyDeleteCheers, Anita.
Your little topiary tree is so sweet!! I have signed up for this project as well, but I haven't started yet - too many other things on the go at this stage! I love your knitting too. Can't wait to see it finished.
ReplyDeleteLove your stitchery and those supervisors are just gorgeous, they can come and supervise at my place anytime!
ReplyDeleteYour block is lovely, I am doing that one too! Beautiful knitting too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful friend you have there and your stitchery is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful block - and its nice to have some knitting for a change. I stick to making squares for charity rugs - it never gets cold enough for me to want to wear something knitted.
ReplyDeleteThat's a wonderful pattern you are knitting...very NiCe! Love the stitchery too with all those wonderful buttons! Thanks for joining in with us at FNWF :)
