I have been knitting, here’s the proof \ud83d\ude42

\nJo Sharp “Satin”.
\nThe first 70 rows were straight stocking stitch, and although I always think that stocking stitch should be quick because it’s so easy, it always takes me forever because it’s so boring. But I’m finally up to row 70 and can start doing a few different rows. Hopefully that will help it move along a little quicker.
\nI’m enjoying working with the Jo Sharp DK, and I’m actually getting gauge for the first time ever! I had to drop to a 3.5mm needle, but I’m getting both row gauge and stitch gauge. \ud83d\ude42
\n3.5mm is not a standard needle size in Australia. Usually our needles go from a 3.25mm to a 3.75mm needle. I’m wondering if that hasn’e stuffed up my gauge in the past – perhaps I should always have been using a 3.5mm.
\nThe colour in the first photo isn’t accurate, so heres a better one.

\nThat’s till not accurate. It’s not really an apricot – it’s got more caramel in it than this pic.
\nWe’re packing Em’s bag for camp today – this is the first time she’s been away from us for more than a day, and it’s a little bit scary. (More for me than her, I think!)
\nTwinkie wants everybody to frolic in the grass this weekend \ud83d\ude42
