Not much knitting going on here as I've been hit with another viral infection and this time it's affected my joints. I'm also near the tail end of a number of projects and they have either lost their appeal / run out of yarn / become boring! I've started a few things but can't settle to anything so it's back to the strips of garter st for me!!
I finally uploaded the rest of the photos and found a few more memories of the AGM to share and really wish I was going to the In the Loop conference this week.
How about a commercially knit swimsuit by Jaeger? Even after all these years it felt itchy and that was without any sand in it!
Dressing holders anyone?
I've always been fascinated by Sanquhuar gloves and this
reminded me that I do have a number of patterns put away for me to knit when time and hands allow. The patterns can be purchased here for the grand sum of 60 pence each!
Another example of Juliet's work
or how about the patriotic needles kit - note the ones with the heart tops for use when knitting for your sweetheart!
Knitting has featured heavily in this post but I'll leave you with an image of some amazing crochet from Barbara - I really must find a way of getting to her crochet group....
I hadn't realised just how exquisitely tiny Juliet's knits are. Wow!
Do hope that you feel better soon.

Hope the joints have settled down again and you're feeling much better... Sending get well vibes your way!

I wouldn't mind a set of those needles either - I suspect the heart topped ones when used are used with a lot of heart-felt sighing and made some wonderful treaures for a handsome young swain
