WIP Wednesday 27 April 2016

Well, it's been an interesting week - a finish, a new start and a restart.

I finished the snowman I was working on.

That finishes the set.

And I started a new Santa/elf.

He will be the second of three. The fabric colour is way off in the picture - it's really a pale green.

And I restarted the sweater. I was here last week

and I realized I had chosen the wrong size - Orin would be well into grade school before it would fit! So I pulled out all 70 rows (plus the ribbing!!) and restarted on a smaller size. So, I'm here at the moment,

about 40 rows plus the ribbing done. Big sigh!

WIP Wednesday 20 April 2016

I managed to find some nice blocks of stitching time over the last couple of days, so the sweater has gone from here

to here

and the snowman has gone from here

to here.

So, apart from a not so terrific IHSW, it's been a productive week.

IHSW Weekend Finish 18 April 2016

Well, life pretty much ate up my stitching time this weekend, but I did get about an hour on my snowman. This is where I was Friday evening

and here's where I stopped last night.

At least I got his gift finished!

Now off to blog hop and see what everyone else has done.

IHSW Weekend Start 15 April 2016

It's I(nternational) H(ermit) and S(titch) W(eekend), when stitchers around the globe settle in and stitch the weekend away.

Would you like to join us? Have a look at Random Ramblings' blog.

I'm going to try and work on 2 projects this weekend. #1 is the sweater and I'm starting here

Since the back is just straight blue stocking stitch, I figure the ruler will be the only way to see my progress unless I miraculously finish it!

#2 is my snowman and I'm starting him here.

See you all on Monday!
