SO.. the dogs are walked .. and going out again later ..... the sun is still shining .. and I'm not that person anyway xx
I finished a cardigan .. FOR ME!!!..and did my best to get some pictures that show the true colour... not happening x ...
it is a lovely purple/blue with flecks of red...
I tried with the light on ... and out side!..
you just have to believe me!! lol x I have recently been seeing clothes with odd buttons ... so I joined in the trend....
......In 1971/72 the UK went from imperial to metric currency and for about 12 months before that the price of goods was shown in BOTH ........ the pattern I used .. (what do you mean that woman is wearing a wig!!).....
.....has BOTH prices ... mmm I think it is time it was used x My mum remembers buying it ... and was going to do it ... one day !... sound familiar! lol x The price was ONE SHILLING ... cant get a pattern for one POND now !! ... my grandsons don't even know what a shilling was!... now I feel OLD! Talk about living history xx
.... off to play with some purple fabric now x
ps..... I did (for a fleeting moment!) contemplate housework as a way to keep busy ...... the urge didn't last thank goodness x

Great cardy there Diane! What, is your GS coming here for good?
Purple is extremely difficult to photograph accurately. It has something to do with the color wave lengths. Next time when you try it, also include something yellow and something blue in the photo and the purple may photograph in truer form.
A great cardigan. Glad you've had something to take your mind off the departure.
You'll see him again before you know it. Love the colour of the cardi, I"ve a few patterns like that too! xx
Keep yourself occupied with fun projects - certainly not housework! Xxx

It is a beautiful sweater and I just love the color.
I love the colour of your cardigan - it is so pretty! I am sure that your grandson will be fine over here - where abouts is he going to live?
You know that if you leave the housework long enough you will find that you don't need to do it at all!!
Lovely sweater!! I like the idea of the odd buttons too. Much better to put your pent up energy into knitting and sewing than housework!
Your cardy looks lovely.
The cardigan is lovely, it will live a long time.
