Oh but I DO try, Reverend Mother

Well, I'm nearing forty (eek etc) so decided to write up a list of things to do while I'm waiting. Nice sensible things. Help a local charity. Start learning to drive. One of them was to knit a jumper like what the mighty Sarah Lund wears. You know, her off of The Killing. Essentially because I really wanted one but am too tight to pay nearly £300 for a jumper, even if it does have magic self-mending properties.

Needless to say I can't find the pattern anywhere on the internet. But I did find a much nicer pattern, and wool supplier, from the Faroe Islands, so away I ordered and on I got with it.

But then I got distracted by yarn. Wool shops are bad places, in a good way. Lovely lovely yarn eh?

So now I'm knitting a jumper AND a punchwork scarf. Needless to say all other projects are on hold until I get both of them done. Needless to say I want them both NOW. And it's only 2 weeks until NaNoWriMo kicks off.

I may have to give up work.
