Slowly but surely

Everything has been going rather slowly right now. I feel like I am behind on everything. And knitting is definately going slower than normal. I finally finished another clapotis scarf using the Socks that Rock yarn in the Mustang Sally color. It is a very soft scarf and I do enjoy using it. Both monkeys seem to like it as well. 3dcbc228cb538874a8f15922629c479f.jpg626df2e793ba45a425c98ab6100d28c5.jpg47f72f1e5f66349a58bd77dc47d7b8c6.jpg

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have also been slowly working on the cardigan. I have one sleeve finished and one sleeve almost finished. Then I have to knit the button bands. Along with find buttons to go with it so I can sew them on.  d586472813743154cf8e940a71f01420.jpg

I was in Asia............

That is/was my excuse for not knowing about something. Did you hear about this band? Nope, I was in Asia, they didn't make it that far. Did you get to see this movie. Nope, I was in Asia, didn't make it to the theatres there. Did you hear this latest bit of news or celebrity gossip? Nope, I was in Asia and that didn't make the headlines.

A few weekends ago, the monkey and I decided to head out of Leeds for a Saturday and visit the Bronte Family Parsonage. It is a beautiful house and the monkey and I were both impressed with it. We only got to take pictures from the outside though. The was lovely as well. 7c03dd7cb49db95576030cbc223f9050.jpg

But what really impressed the monkey was something he hadn't seen before. And something I hadn't seen in a while because I was in Asia. The monkey was so interested that he had to try playing in the leaves just to see what it was like. I think he enjoyed it 6f21d33fb7b1d96c0e4e44e0397438dc.jpg9b569356b52f6632ebe152cf371607fc.jpge401136248e723310122cb68f606e7f3.jpg
