I finally managed to find a dress to only realise that the original waterfall style cardigan would not work because of the change in colours! I also knew that I would not have time to knit a cardi from scratch so my dear friend Debs, knit the fronts and back, which meant I only had to tackle the sleeves. Good job too as since the middle of last week I have been poorly with a virus.
The Borrowers is our read aloud and narration book for the first part of this new school term. We are slowly easing back in to a new school year and are taking things easy by introducing new topics in a gentle manner. I would rather we started slow and steady than going crazy and losing momentum half way through!
Benedict did a great job with his narration and worked incredibly hard with his copywork which is not easy for someone with dyspraxia and dyslexia :-)
I am sorry to hear that you have had a virus, hope it is gone for the big day :) (and you get your knitting done in time!)
ReplyDeleteGood luck with those last preparations. We are preparing for company that will arrive when you have the wedding, I have no idea how to get order into this house by then. So we are both in the same boat so to speak. But I do not have to knit in between! We also have "The Borrowers" up on our bookshelf, but we have never read it. Maybe I should pull it out again. I once tried, many, many years ago, but it was too hard back then for my children.
ReplyDeleteI hope you're feeling better now San? We're reading the very same book here too :) Looking forward to seeing some beautiful pictures featuring your cardie on the big day xx
