Yarn A Long

I have just finished reading 'The Seven Storey Mountain' and really enjoyed and appreciated it.
I have two projects on the go at the moment.
The first is for daylight knitting- I can't deal with thin needles and complicated patterns in the evening.
It is for Lydia-The Amaryllis Hat in Baby Ull on 2.00 and 2.25 mm needles- Arragh!!!
The other requires very little concentration and is for Julia A Doctor Who scarf , I am using various aran weight yarns that are available locally, mostly Sirdar and Stylecraft.

I am joining with Ginny from Small Things in the weekly Yarn-Along.

Shame on me.

This seems to be a regular occurrence- large intervals between blog posts. Oh dear.
Well, since our trip to St Ives we have packed Lydia off to Uni and I visited my mum, dad and sister in the US of A.

The Indian Mounds near Macon GA.

Mum, Dad and Rachel.

Here are some pictures of my whirlwind visit.
