I like turtles!
Not sure what happened, but the past I wrote on Saturday doesn’t seem to have published… so going to write it up again super quick!
Another “pattern” from a 6 yo – so cute! Used the free Turtle II chart by Sandra Jäger and my now standard cobbled together hat pattern.
In other news, I kind of fell off my resolution of using only wool from the stash…
Monday – I needed about 50g of a specific colour for a requested knit, and wound up coming home with the correct colour, just 3x100g worth…
Tuesday – was having a bit of a bad day and when I got home, found two balls of ‘pick-me-up’ wool from Engel. (He’s a sweetie, they’re a good colour and the correct weight and type as the majority not my stash)
Thursday – I was given a 300g ball of wool for another project to help raise funds for Felix’s school.
Friday – bobbed into the shops to get a little something sweet and walked out with 4 more balls of wool…it was a lovely colour!
So my wool count now looks like this:
Wool Count
Starting total – 704
Wool used – 25 (5 this week!)
Wool bought – 7
Wool given – 3
Wool gifted – 0
Total – 689 (it’s gone up be 5 in total!)
There’s absolutely no harm in topping up the wool stash, especially if you’ve had a bad day.
The turtle hat is super cute!
Thank you!
