I started the day by walking down to the hotel to retrieve my bike (Nigel had come down after training driven me home which was handy because the shortcuts aren’t such a good thing after dark). I took the chance to find some shampoo that should sort out my colour issues and avoid the ‘pink rinse’. I had thought that once I stopped dying it maintenance would be straightforward but apparently not entirely! I also bought a bunch of dahlias on the market - not as fresh as the ones straight out of my garden but different colours- I’m turning into a major dahlia fan. I was also sucked into the book shop but only for birthday gifts.
Weather: hot - 30°C
Covid: slightly down on Monday’s increased rate but daily deaths climbing inexorably.
Good thing: I’ve finished a sock despite Rafiki stealing my chair. I’ll cast on another so I don’t fall into ‘one sock syndrome’.
You astonish me with your prolific knitting! Your chairs are in better nic than ours, we’ve had them so long they are a silvery grey & very wobbly….the wood has shrunk but still so comfy.
@happypat thanks Pat because I spent the weekend oiling them - probably need another coat actually. These are new ones, we have some a year old and rickety ones about 10! They’ve been my favourite spot in the few days of summer we’ve had!
I love this! You snooze you loose... your seat! She looks very content and I think that may be her favourite spot too.
Also admiring your birks, I live in those too, so comfy!
Good of Rafiki not to mess with your yarn. She's either well trained for a cat, totally disinterested in batting yarn around, or entirely too comfy. That sock looks amazing!
