I promised knitting updates yesterday, and I didn’t give them. I’m sorry. I was busy.
\nCleaning Em’s room.
\nFor seven hours.
\nWith help from David. We actually had to take the mattress off of her bed and remove the slats so that I could get to all the crap she’d stashed under the bed.
\nSeven hours, people. I kid you not. I took her to dancing at 2, and came home to tackle the mess. We finished at 9.15pm.

\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nThat was around an hour in, after all the dirty clothes had been removed. You can’t see the stuff that’s been moved out to the hall so there’s room to move.
\nIt is now clean. For a while, I doubted it would ever happen.
\nOnto knitting news.
\nThe Shetland Shawl is stalled, but the first border is done.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nI’m ready to start the centre square. So what I’ve decided is that if the two extra balls of cobweb yarn are a reasonable match, I’m going to use them for the centre square, and use the balls I have for the borders. So I’m waiting for the cobweb to arrive.
\nThe Sirdar cardi is powering along, the fronts and the back are done, and I’m working on the sleeves.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nI’m sure it’ll be at the finish line soon.
\nAnd my current sock project, the Prisma socks are also coming along nicely.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nThese are for David, and are my portable knitting. Also heading for the finish line, then I have to decide which sock project comes next.
\nA big stash is not always a good thing, sometimes there’s just too much to choose from!
\nThere was also a sneaky project this week, but more on that next time, after I get another picture.
\nA side effect of cleaning Em’s room was the four loads of laundry that appeared. I ran out of clothesline space, and the airer had to be pressed into service.
\n
\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nSomeone thought it was fun.
\nHappy Mothers’ Day to all! I got some lovely gifts, breakfast in bed, and a generally lazy day (apart from the laundry!). Although, after yesterday’s epic, I think I deserved it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
