This is the first rest day of the tour. I have also been having a bit of a rest from the spinning and have been doing a bit of knitting instead (along with fixing the gutter (carpet now dry, wasps gone, gutter cleaned and re-attached to wall, I think we are sorted), and trying to work out if the washing machine is broken enough to warrant calling an engineer).

So here is my knitted up spindle-spun yarn I made on Day One of the tour.

I have also been knitting away on strips of mitred squares which I am going to do different edgings on for the workshop on 22nd August. 3 done so far.

I’m not at the moment sure how many I am going to do. I shall try a few edging ideas and see what I think looks ok.
