My weekend schedule changed a while back, so Sundays are not always blog days. I haven’t really settled into a new rhythm yet. . . .
I have finished several things, some fresh and some long latent.
Firstly, I finished and mailed in to Cast On magazine, the 2 versions of my Galaxy Tam. The pattern I e-mailed in a few days later.
Also, I finished a second little “hoot!”, by Ysolda Teague.

One is for my DS, away at university.
The other is for his girlfriend. She said of hers that it is “adorbs”. (I translated that to mean “adorable”.) 🙂

And then, I FINALLY seamed up a knit/felted bag I started about 1 1/2 years ago. I don’t think the shape and size will be adequate for a daily bag, so I’m not sure what I’ll do with it. (It measures about 10″ – 12″ across, and 5″ – 6″ tall in the middle, where the stuff would sit.) Yarn is Poems; design is my own.
I’ve had some more requests for repairs; this time for unusual gloves.
The first pair were a gift to me, purchased by an old friend when she traveled to Latvia one summer. I’ve let my son wear them for a couple of winters, and one thumb developed a hole. This past week I mended that.

The second pair are Norwegian. I haven’t started to work on the repairs yet, but I’ve enjoyed studying them.
