Lots Of Progress, But Only One Finish.
Posted on | August 8, 2025 | 7 Comments
I often wonder if the Winter weather makes me take on projects that take a while to finish. Do I choose ones that are going to keep me inside where it is warm? Maybe I sub-consciously do.
I have been keeping the needles working in the evenings to finish this jumper for Miss 10yo. She has already seen the yarn and very much approved of the colour.
The yarn is machine washable wool from Bendigo Woollen Mills. It is from the Prism range and the shade is Fairy Tale.
This is a closer look at the colour gradations.
It is a great way to knit up a jumper without having to change balls of yarn. Love the result.
That was my one finish.
All my other work is going to take quite a while. This is where I am up to on my giraffe.
I have also completed the first border of my Homegrown quilt.
There is so much detail in each section.
I am glad to be back working on this one.
And last of all, my Tussie Mussie inspired blocks. I have gone well past a cushion top in size, so now I am aiming at a small lap quilt.
Even though it is still cold – we have had a few overnight zeros – there is a feeling of Spring on the way. Lots of bulbs are popping up and the birds are getting rather noisy.
Enjoy your weekend, regardless of the weather.
Cheers, Karen

The jersey is gorgeous Karen…I’m sure Miss 10year old will enjoy wearing it with its matching hat. The Homegrown border is beautiful – it’s going to be a fabulous quilt.
That’s a lovely cozy jumper, such gorgeous wool.
Very pretty work. I do love all the special details in your homegrown quilt, delightful!
Yes, the birds have returned, and there are bees in the nearby wattle tree! Love all your creations, Karen. You are a very productive ‘busy bee’!!!
You have fabulous projects …. that yarn is so pretty and almost glows with the colour changes…. your wool work is so lovely and the detail such fun to look at… I’m looking forward to Spring weather

All of your projects are so pretty. But that sweater (or as you say Jumper) is seriously gorgeous!
Those projects all look wonderful! Such detail! I love the yarn you used on the jumper.
