The sunrise circle jacket is moving along well. I've finished the second side, although the novelty of the pattern wore off a bit by then. Nearly finished the back too. The pieces have curled like crazy, so I think I'll have to block them before sewing up.



I've started a summer bag in Sirdar Spree. This is a heavy chunky cotton, which has many plies and is quite splitty. I had thought it would make a summer top, but it's much too heavy. The weight is good for a bag though. I'm pleased with the distribution of the variegated colour.


I bought a flower loom, which is similar to the one I had as a child, but slightly more sophisticated as you can make double sided flowers.
