AYOP Update 

AYOP, Baking, Cooking, Knitting

I feel like I did an outstanding job of wasting my time yesterday. I finished my Mud Season top. I blocked it. It still hasn’t dried, so I will take a photo next week. I then spent the rest of the day unable to decide what to work on. I spent most of the day flipping through my cross-stitch patterns and linen, without picking a pattern to work on. I did manage to make a pot of gumbo, and I baked a banana & choc chip bread.

I did pick up an old WIP and managed to knit a few rows while my bread was baking.

The pattern is Sophie Shawl by Petite Knits. The yarn is Madelinetosh Vintage in the Black Sea colourway. I’m not sure if it will stay in my current rotation. I love the colour, but I’m not feeling it at the moment. I’m hoping that I’ll be more productive this week.

Cooking, Knitting

With the temperature dropping, I thought it would be the perfect time to cook a curry. While waiting for the curry to cook, I also worked on what would be the third pair of socks for DH.

The sock pattern is a basic K3, P1 rib sock. The yarn is from The Plucky Knitter. The base is Primo fingering. I’m unsure of the colour as I have lost the band.
