Oh my, not sure how it got to be Thursday already, but calendars don't lie. In my defense I have been down with a nasty cough and just about everything seems like too much trouble.
My progress to date has been working on two of my wips.
My Contrapunctus are done - and they are wonderful. I have never made a short row toe before and I really like the look and the fit.
I started my Wildernesse shawl with a new colour scheme and fingering wool I am much happier with the look and weight of the knit.
Yesterday we were well enough (hubby has same cough) to take in a movie, Formula 1, to celebrate our 48th wedding anniversary. And after we went for a lovely dinner at a local British pub.
I also found out last week that I did get the Peer Support Worker contract with our local Health Department and I will start working with peers in September. I am very excited for the opportunity to give back to the Mental Health program that has been so important in my own on-going mental health recovery. I did have an article I wrote about my journey get published as a guest post on the Spotlight on Mental Health blog. You can read it here.
Now I will go and check what the rest of you have been doing.
I must be feeling a little better and hopefully I will be back in the ocean this coming weekend.
Glad you're feeling better. Your knitting is amazing.
ReplyDeleteYour Contrapunctus socks are beautiful! Great color choices. And I'm glad you've gotten some yarn you prefer for your Wildernesse shawl. That is going to be a work of art.
ReplyDeleteYour socks look fantastic! Congratulations on your Anniversary. I hope you are feeling better soon.
ReplyDeleteThose socks are soooo beautiful. Glad you are happy with the shawl redo. Congratulations on the new job. You will be a blessing to many.
ReplyDeleteI’m glad you are feeling better better. Looks like the new yarns for your shawl are perfect for some drape but also showing the colourwork detail. Worth the effort of re-doing. Happy anniversary. Liz (Highlandheffalump)
