Virtual Friday 19

24th of July today and it's the feast of St Christina, a 12th Century saint. She lived in an oven and a tree. Just thought I'd put that out there! We had an uneventful meeting today. Nothing much happened, not many of us present...... Sheila has finished her lovely lap blanket and is now knitting … Continue reading Virtual Friday 19 →

Virtual Friday 18

My goodness! I don't know where to start - it was such a busy session this morning (17th July). 11 of us at various times throughout the meeting with some dipping in and out and others having to leave early - it was hard to keep track of all the goings on 🙂 We chatted … Continue reading Virtual Friday 18 →

Virtual Friday 17

10th of July already! Zooming today without any issues at my end thankfully. May was frozen for a while but defrosted without missing too much. Judith sent us a photo of her latest FO - a beautiful baby cardi for Sarah: Krysia M showed us a tapestry she's in the middle of - a Kaffe … Continue reading Virtual Friday 17 →

Virtual Friday 16

Today's meeting, 3rd July, was not without issues. I was prepared and ready, having 'practised' some screen sharing to make sure I did it right, when my internet connection suddenly dropped, just 10 minutes prior to the start of the meeting. OK. Run downstairs to check the router and reboot it just in case. Back … Continue reading Virtual Friday 16 →

I really like what she says in this particular podcast, which she has called 'This is … Continue reading Braid and Tinker podcast →

Virtual Friday 15

Another week, another Zoom....... Quite a few of us again on the 26th of June. Luckily no-one seems to be finding meeting like this boring - or if they do, they're not saying 🙂 Linda's knitted another stunning shawl. She's so clever! I might try breaking into her house one of these days to steal … Continue reading Virtual Friday 15 →

Virtual Friday 13

It was the 12th of June but the 13th time of meeting. Would you believe it? A whole quarter of a year has been spent in virtual meetings! We met on Zoom and admired Judith's latest FO's, all for Sarah's baby. Lovely, aren't they? Liz has also been busy making things for a friend's baby. … Continue reading Virtual Friday 13 →

Virtual Friday 12

I've been busy and feeling a bit lazy this last week and today (the 12th) still hadn't written up our meeting of the 5th. I thought I'd do a combined post covering weeks 12 and 13 but the meeting we had this morning was quite full of info etc that the resulting post would be … Continue reading Virtual Friday 12 →
