Two cosies done and sent off to mum - I figured if I sent 2, the chances are increased that she will like at least one, but I'll get told off for being superfluous and making two, never mind - done and dusted. The scarf is next to get completed (unless I get distracted - yes I am aware I have the attention span of a gnat). Then it is the Rowan kildsilk haze cardigan and the James Brett cardigan which have been languishing in a pile by the sofa, maybe. At the moment I seem to have days on end when I come home and just blob rather than knit (as in knit AND blob - whatever happened to the days of multi-tasking?)
I have had a chaotic week - tuesday I was down in York (5:00 to the train station to catch the 6:00 and back at 9:45pm) in black ice and blizzard conditions. Getting up the small footpath from our house was the most hazardous part of the trip, for every two steps forward I slithered one back (truly, it was like climbing the north face of the Eiger - well done me) whilst clinging to the stone wall that runs for approx 2/3 of the length - and then it changed to holly hedge (not so good for clinging too). Still, the study day on diagnostic filters and what-not was well worth it - very interesting and very useful.
Thursday and Friday I was in London to teach critical apprasial skills (fabluous - what a lovely bunch of people, really friendly and full of questions and just made the two days go so well), I meant to meet up with Yvonne but was so tired I fell asleep rather than go out in the evening, never mind - I'll just have to find another excuse to go down there again......
Oooo, the tea cosies are very pretty!!

Wow, gorgeous tea cosies! The Noro one just talks and talks, those colours are fab.
I remember multi-tasking. Nowadays I'm lucky if I can remember the one task I'm supposed to be doing :)
