Knitting Night

Each week on a Tuesday evening I am very fortunate to be a part of an amazing group of girls who sit and knit, crochet, sew and talk. Well we mostly talk but we do some craft stuff.


I very much look forward to catching up each week and hearing what each of us has been up to and talk and listen about each others lives, joys, troubles. We laugh, we sometimes cry but most of the time we just enjoy each others company.


Last nights knitting was a little light on (Happy Birthday Nay, hope you had a great day), poor Nic was not well and Julia had a family commitment, so it was just my sister and I. It turned out to be one of the best knitting nights I've experienced :-)


My sister doesn't often vent, I mean REALLY vent, but she was in fine form last night, and after all the ear bashing that I have put her through over the last 36 years it was nice to finally return the favour of listening.


And then we laughed, and laughed, and cried with laughter - for a second there I thought we were going to pee our pants we laughed so hard. Amazing how an iPhone camera and trying to take a flattering photo could end up being such a hilarious task. Nonetheless we persevered, and with Jo's new app thingy we finally succeeded with a photo that I could blog.


Finally - I finished the beanie!!!




Now, I think it's time for "another" scarf :-)
