A slight delay

-

Hi everyone,

As many of you may know we have recently moved house but will be without the internet until the end of August due to the Olympics *grumble grumble*.

In the meantime i will try and keep the blog updated with what is going on, it will all be brief as i have to do it in my lunch hour or sitting in the car outside of our apartment! Oh yeah we have no phone signal either...what did people do before all this technology?

I am partaking in the ravellenic games and am knitting lots of socks so i will post update photos when possible :-)

In the meantime here is a wind farm i visited last week!

    I am up to your podcast where you mention blocking a shawl by pinning it to a yoga mat. GENIOUS! I don't need to buy foam squares after all.
