Breisach The next day was Sunday and maybe it was as a result of the cold/chest infection that had started a week previously but I did not feel at my best. I was therefore content to just wander. I had not expected to be able to go to church on the Sunday however we were… Read More Rhine Cruise – Breisach and Titisee
We were nearer the windows on the way back. After leaving Lucerne we drove through the Bernese Oberland. We stopped and ate our packed lunch then boarded a train to travel up to the mountains. It was hard to take photographs of this journey because of the movement and where we were sitting but I include… Read More Rhine Cruise – the mountains.
After having arrived in Basel the next morning we were taken by coach to Lucerne. This is the first sight we saw. We wandered through a busy market. I thought it was a shame we would be fed so well that there was no point in buying anything.Then Catherine and I decided to cross the… Read More Rhine Cruise – Lucerne
I finished parts three and four a while ago but thought I would wait to update you all. Especially as I get the feeling that this is maybe of interest to less people.

I showed you the yarn that I was sent by Stylecraft after I had had a problem with one of the balls for my Lost Garden blanket and the extra colours I had chosen for making the… Read More Monthly Montage – August
I am happy to say that I have finally finished the blanket. The last rounds were few but took longer of course. The two rows for the flowers took an hour or so per side to complete so I took it easy and just enjoyed the ride. There were times when I decided that marking… Read More Lost Garden blanket complete
In the past I made these – and these. and I decided that I would like to make another pair. I chose some material. Here you can see from some of the material left over (They must have given me another 30cm than what I asked for!) that there are lots of parrots. So here… Read More I Made another Pair of Trousers
After I wrote the last post about this blanket I finished the first part of the CAL. And then moved on the the next part. I have now finished Part 2. I would have been further on with part three if I hadn’t decided to go back to working on the Lost Garden blanket. I… Read More Sacred Space blanket to date
