I hate being in towns when it is hot! Thankfully I had booked a day off of work today and Matt and I were able to escape for a drive through Kent ending up in Herne Bay for a fish & chip supper followed by ice cream.
I like going to Herne Bay, especially when it is quiet. The houses on the sea front make me think of the ruched tea cosies my Gran used to knit
We enjoyed a gentle stroll along the sea front watching the boats coming in and the jet skiers having fun
the journey meant that knitting was done
the pattern is Cayman from Yarn Forward and the yarn is Hempwol bought at IKL 2 years ago. I like the way this is knitting up.
My thanks to everyone who sent congratulations about the birth of my great niece, she looks a charmer in her photos!

My great gran lived in Herne Bay. Its such a lovely place - my favourite spot is the ice cream parlour where I had my first knickerbocker glory aged about 8!
