I see myself sinking into an avoiding-social-interaction spiral, and I'm not having it. Stupid illness, stupid interruption to routines....hmph.

So here's a sort of summary of where we are:

- #LotR extended edition marathon on Saturday, I started stitching on Errol when they left Lothlorien and then ran out of energy at the end of Two Towers but progress is progress!

- First of my #EskarinaSocks has been about 2 rounds from completion for over a week now but again, no energy 😩

- Braved the cinema for husband's birthday, ended up telling off some loud women and now I feel extremely badass.

- Made #FantasyFootball playoffs, but then said husband knocked me out in the first round despite me having braved the cinema for him. The scoundrel.

- 4 weeks in and I'm still not breathing right. I wish I could hibernate for a month 😭

I am fairly confident it's going to turn out good, but I also want to winge about it because I currently hate it.

I hate the lack of border and I don't want to look at it.

The scales pattern looks really nice on the original and is really difficult to replicate, lots of redoing and tinkering involed, and it takes forever.
Also the stitch sometimes does not curve nicely and I don't really now why or how to fix it.

I only have 4 of those left though, that's cool (no)

I was on Substack earlier and found this upcoming “Hogs Swatch Cowl KAL” - here is the author’s description of how it came about https://open.substack.com/pub/goneawool/p/the-story-of-the-hogs-swatch-cowl?r=3prl9&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post

Keep meaning to join in with #MakersHour, but the one week I've finally remembered is the week that's been too busy to really make anything!

I am managing to get a few stitches in here and there on my Errol #CrossStitch so let's see if that counts or if they chuck me out of the hashtag for crimes against making 😅

Oh also I did take a proper #WIPWednesday photo. The long ribbing makes this one look even weirder than most socks do at this stage!

#discworldmal progress! now i just need a lot more black floss… A LOT

Well the good news is that Sparrow has gone home, dogsitting duties are complete, and now I can get back to some actual crafting.

The bad news is that Sparrow has gone home, dogsitting duties are complete, and I miss her and am sad 😭

Behold literally a whole week's cross stitch progress on Errol. Ouch!
