The knitting was measured as it went along, so was my arm. Somehow, the sleeve ended up being long enough to cover my hand as well. All this unravelling and sewing back together must be educational?
The Saga of the Missing Green Stripe

End of year
I printed a midwinter card but didn’t send many copies out into the world. Here it is with an appliqué tree from a few decades ago. The knitted geese are made of aran yarn, too thick but the thinner yarns weren’t available in the colours I wanted at the time.
Water drop coaster
There was a crochet pattern in a recent Water Aid magazine that arrived in the post. The picture looked like a white christmas tree. I wondered if the water drop would work as a knitted illusion. If I’d used the right size needles it might have looked better.
Mending
The colours are sunnier than shown, but these are dark days. Some things are easier to mend than others.
