Flying Time

Goodness gracious me! Can it really be almost a year since I last blogged? Clearly I'm not a born blogger - I'm so much more at home with equations than I am with words. Well, here's where the last year's gone:

I've been quite the busy bee

Three months spent on a whistle-stop tour of the UK mainland.
 

Aberdeenshire

Yorkshire

Field upon field of poppies

Kent

 

 

Dumfries and Galloway

Making waves

Beer o'clock.

I bought a new loom, broke it, mended it and finished some weaving.

See how the wood has worn away in the centre

 

So Woolbothy

Nature's Gift Wrap

I started some more weaving, to make a Collette Albion

Inspired by Stirling Moss here

Lucky Heather.

British wool from the Hebrides - home of Harris Tweed

 I did a spot of knitting.

Shepherd's Lipstick

 ...and some spinning and knitting

A Jacob lamb called Molly

I've become obsessed with dyeing sock yarn.

 

Next time (only a week or two away) I'll show you some secret sewing.

Meanwhile, it's back to watching the puffins, nesting in the cliffs.
