That was my day. The back of the jumper/sweater is done, the front is on the needles. Ben is snoring. Telly is now off. 
I still have not answered comments and I am far behind on blog reading.
Tomorrow is mine, I hope, no errands to run, no chauffeur duties, shopping, machine moving or any other tasks lined up.
I plan on back garden in the morning and front in the afternoon, any precipitation will see me head for sofa and knitting.
I am determined to  finish my knitting before I touch the blanket.
Now just a few more rows and another cuppa.

    1. I am not sure what caused it but this should have posted on Thursday, not to worry. Thursday was in the garden most of the day and yesterday was on the sofa knitting. We were in a cloud all day and today looks to be much the same.

  5. With all those cuppas, I am assuming there are a bunch of bathroom breaks in there that you politely didn't include 😀

    1. Naturally, not from politeness though, just never occurred to me. I did forget to put the little bit of ironing in as well.
