Well this has to be one of the hottest Summers I can remember here in Nelson. It has been very hot with no rain for ages and everything is so parched and dry.
I haven't been doing much knitting or dyeing, but a few weeks back I did some gradient dyeing and was happy with what I did. Of
course I had to knit it up to see what it looked like! This is the
'In Threes Cardigan' that I have knitted up lots and it looks great in Gradient yarn. I also did a
Gradient Milo and a lovely
Bloom dress .
We went to Mapua yesterday for a picnic it was so hot but we found a spot under some trees. Georgia and her friend had a great time jumping off the wharf, while Joel climbed trees. We had fish and chips and fruit ice creams..... Heaven!!! What a beautiful spot so close to us.
I have done a few markets lately. I am doing
Washbourne Gardens Market on Monday that's if it doesn't rain, there are going to be lots of stalls so hope its good. Its not really the weather for hand knits and hand dyed yarn is it?
Well lunch time calls.
Have a good day wherever you are>
