The weather has cheered right up today. It has been warm, but not as humid as yesterday and we have had the first day without rain in what feels like yonks! I grabbed the opportunity to dash outside and catch up with some much needed things in the garden. I am still losing the battle with the foliage generally, but at least I don’t need a machete to open the back door now 🙂
We are inching our way along catching up with the cyclists. We finished watching yesterday’s racing, and were very relieved when we started watching today’s coverage that no-one had been too badly hurt in the crash near the end. Hopefully we shall catch up with real time at the weekend.
While watching I have plied up another skein of alpaca / merino.
Today’s coin is a German 5 Cent, to celebrate AndrĂ© Greipel’s win yesterday.
I think I probably have one or maybe two more skein’s of plying left to go. I was so worried about over-plying this, that I think I have gone the other way and slightly under-plied it. Hopefully it will be ok anyway. I am really looking forward to starting to knit with it.
