What You Doing Wednesday Week 4

Wow I just can't believe how quick this month is going!

I hope your week so far has been good.


This week has been a lot of ups and downs.
There are some stressful things going on at the moment.
I can't tell you about them but hopefully
once everything is sorted I'll be able to give you more details.
Kidney infection is still grumbling but once
I get my test results back I'll be able
to start a new course of medication.

Little Red is back at school!
He really needed to be.
I do as much as I can with him but he was ready to go back.
He has joined the school craft club
so I'll hopefully have some pictures
of what he has been making for you.

This week I've been making an owl
I bought the Nelson owl pattern
I'm really enjoying the pattern but I can only crochet
this pattern when my brain cells are working:


And a surprise:


I'm hoping if the pattern works
that I am designing
I may have a new free pattern for you :-)
It doesn't look right at the moment but I think it's going to work.
I was inspired by the mindless scarf.
I just love the stitch.

I haven't had chance to work on my African Blanket this week
but I'll hopefully get some done for next week.

This week I am reading
Silver Knight by Caron Rider


So far it's quite good.
I am really enjoying the main character
Diana & how all the other characters are
being brought into the story.

Now it's your turn to see what other people or making
& to show off what you are making:

  5. Oh I do hope you're better soon.

    I know what you mean about school - my Boy was totally ready to go back this week as well. He had a lot of fun at home with his sister but 5 year old boys need to be kept busy - mentally as well as physically, and to be with their peers as well.

    Looking forward to your FOs!

    1. Thanks ever so much! Oh they do all sorts at his club. The woman who runs brownies has arranged for the craft club. They do football, jujitsu, gymnastics, choir, (for the girls they have netball) and as they get into the older years the boys have rugby as well I think. They have 60 children in every year which is a lot for a primary & junior school. It means they can afford to run a few more programs. We have to pay towards it but it's worth it.

  10. I'm noticing several that mention the WIP crafts as well as a book they are reading. Which blog linky hop is this for? I'm always supposed to be reading a book.
