Knits

What a good weekend to top off the week of feeling pretty crappy from a cold and exhaustion. My friend came to visit and we went and saw Travis. That makes it three times in as many months that I’ve seen them. I can’t help it! They’re just so freakin’ cute.

I gave her a tour of Oxford. The weather all weekend was hit and miss — rain one minute, bright sunny skies the next.

The Radcliffe Camera and various colleges

We visited a little village to the north of Oxford called Woodstock — it rained pretty much the whole time, but it’s small. I wanted to go to the yarn shop that is listed in the yellow pages… only I couldn’t find it. Turns out it’s been closed for two- to three years! Argh. Oh well. I don’t need more yarn, but I wanted to go in since yarn shops are a novelty for me since they are lacking in Oxford.

The Boy made us dinner Saturday night and today we headed back into London so she could get back on the train to Brussels. We only had a few hours so we just went to Westminster Abbey / Big Ben / Houses of Parliament / London Eye since they are all right there next to Waterloo station. We also met up with a girl we know from the blogging world so that was nice.

I’m off to bed now, but stay tuned for some shots of my new (maybe clever) knitting accessory for socks! Plus a totally cute, girly handmade handbag I bought from a craft fair we stumbled upon!

PS Thank you all for all the nice comments and download of the pattern! If you downloaded it the first day or two it was up, you may want to re-download it as I discovered an error in the chart that must have occurred when I converted it to a PDF (I had to use a different converter to normal) plus a minor error I missed in all the reviewing. It’s all fixed now and as far as I can tell, error free. If you do find an error, please let me know! [And I'll remember to add a last updated date to the PDFs in the future.] Links to the pattern below for your convenience while I continue to revamp this blog (soon they’ll be in the sidebar).

Download the full pattern or the chart-only if you’re more experienced.
