So that bunch of yarn I got together a while ago became a vest. I’m really quite pleased with it. The pattern is my own and includes vertical bust darts. It’s knit in half-linen stitch with two strands held together. Includes quite a bit of handspun yarn as well.

I finally got around to blocking that skirt. I’m pleased with the solution I came up with thanks to help from friends. Looking forward to finally wearing it once dry.

A bundle of recent handspun yarn. I’m not formally doing the TdF, but I’m aiming to do a bit of spinning every day.

This lot is thicker than I usually spin. I might combine them to make a vest or something.

I’ve had my new job for a month and I think I’ve really lucked out. It is a great place to work so far and my team is a lot of fun. ☺️

I’m sure being a Māori led, majority female and POC workplace has something to do with it.

First day went well. My brain is over full of course but I met lots of cool people and started getting a handle on things.

It was also my kids first day at after school care. Thankfully it sounds like they had a blast.

First day of new job selfie. A rare sight of me in makeup. 😁

Here’s hoping it goes well!

My youngest just wrote me the cutest note. It says

“I ❤️ you so mush” 🥰🥰
