Didn't do any crafting yesterday as I went out for lunch with a good friend to @galleytopsham The food was exceptional, the service and company excellent 💜

TV has a classic view of a Dalek mid exterminating, I'm holding bright deep green yarn, knitting with skinny needles over crochet blanket. Chain row counter also visible
I'm holding bright deep green yarn, knitting a sock having just completed the toe, with skinny needles over crochet blanket. Chain row counter also visible as is K9 in the background
Day 20+19 #Craftuary
Another day off
Another classic movie I'd not seen (Dalek Invasion 2150) & some progress with MrGs sock
Using handdyed 4 ply gifted by a customer - feels like nonsuperwash wool; I'm beginning the gusset.

... and taken to events before Christmas
What you can see here is a mini production line of the inners I'm making to fill the size gaps ready for @kernow_yaff on March 9th
#CraftuaryChallenge #spinnerring
Teeny weeny (3.5*2.5mm) Star Trek themed nose stud, on my hand and between my fingers
.. to Edinburgh Assay Office soon - anticlastic bangles (plus one I've just listed on my website) reticulated super hefty bangles, the worlds smallest #StarTrek themed fine and sterling nose stud
Heel turning this evening.

and whilst it was doing it's simmering reduction I watched a little of Hattie with the fabulous Ruth Jones, who talked about her with such affection.
Really enjoying this challenge. Hope you are too.

Photos show sock toe, then a piece of Star Trek stud earring mid filing, how I measure up a hefty bangle for size prior to sawing n soldering, and said bangle being filed)
Day11 #Craftuary
Mostly spent at the bench filing + polishing I'm now covered in compound so after my shower I'll be back on the second sock - that's what I accomplished yesterday, now it's short rows with twin stitches

Large crochet shawl, in lilac, purple and green handspun yarn, on sofa back (colourful project bag in front)
The back of me, in the garden, some sun showing the colours of the shawl
Sock gusset begins! Black and white African bone and sterling stirchmarkers, blanket over my knees, DrWho on the TV in front
Day 9 #Craftuary
Forgot to update yesterday - me knitting my first sock gusset
Today completed the #HarbourLights shawl previously mentioned
Perfect timing as the Spindernella yarn is beautifully toasty & it's only 12 degrees in our house 🤣

There's only a slight downside to taking proper time away from the bench - my fingers and back ache a bit after spending the afternoon sawing, soldering, filing!

Pile of wibbly edged tags, deckle scissors on festive table cloths. V messy.
Day 5 @cosycraftclub #Craftuary
Today we took down our decorations so I spent 20 mins using these deckle scissors (bought for bezel strip thanks to a #TopTip by Make It With Kim) to trim gift tags from our Christmas cards

Day 3 of @cosycraftclub club #CraftuaryChallenge
A cardy for me, using the lush (BFL Becca?) non superwash wool I ordered as a custom dyelot from @bluebellyarns last year as part of a skill swap
I'm loving making the cardigan, which is a pattern by @elizabethsmithknits
#LoveLocal #ShopIndie
Green and purple handspun and hand dyed yarn, crochet hook, Dr Who titles from series 22 on the TV
Day 2 of @cosycraftclub #CraftuaryChallenge
Crocheting my 3rd #HarbourLights shawl (well, a few modifications!) by @littlebudcreations with glorious handspun by the delightful Nell of @spindernella
Can you guess what we are watching today?!
