Knitting has become a major activity for Katharine since the start of the first lockdown in March 2020. Fortunately one of Lucy's friends in York in the middle of last year, another of her friends had a baby late last year, and Lucy is expecting a baby due before the end of this month, so lots of baby clothes have been knitted.
Unfortunately, new deliveries of wool have arrived regularly as well, so the stockpile has grown. So the next project for 2021 is to reduce the stockpile. Katharine will just have to do more knitting!
I’m afraid I’m guilty too but with me it’s crochet bags which I am really enjoying making. She needs one of my bags to put all this fab wool in!! Super colourful
She's going to be busy! ! also have a wool collection. I'm using up oddments at the moment to make stripy beanie hats to go towards next year's shoebox appeal. You've given me an idea for a photo though!
( I just indulged in a wool hand knitted Irish sweater. )
Thank you all for your lovely comments, they are very much appreciated.
Katharine finds her knitting quite relaxing, and it is a productive use of the time that we are spending at home during lockdown.

Thank you Nina - Katharine finds it really relaxing, and she has completed quite a few garments during lockdown.

Don't you believe it William - it won't be long before the postman is bringing another parcel of wool!
