It’s a roundup of the microblogging I’ve done on Flickr and Instagram all week. This includes photos I shot for Project 365 and any other extra images I may have posted.
Ready? Cast your mind back to this time last week…
Saturday
208/365 My Rings of Saturn shawl so far. I have to put in a few hours at work this morning, but when I get home, it’s going to be all about the crocheting!
Sunday morning coffee and crochet at Mom & Dad’s house. I just love this little guest room. I stay here now and then for a little visit, and a mini solo vacation ♥
209/365 The weekend is coming to a close, unfortunately. I probably have a few more rows in me, and then I’ll have to go back to sneaking in stitches on my lunch hour and after work. I’m really happy with the amount of progress I’ve made, though!
201/365 I noticed yesterday that all of my images from the weekend were primarily shades of blue and green. I wondered if I could keep that up all week. One look at my desk on Monday morning, and I don’t think it’s going to be a problem for me 😁
Just started the 4th and last color! This is going so fast! I wish I loved it, but sadly it is not knocking my socks off. The good news is that it went so quickly, I can try again with different colors, and fix some other mistakes I’ve made while I’m at it. And I can keep this one as backup, in case I don’t finish the new one in time for #hugoawards2019 😊
I finished it after dinner, blocked it overnight, and threw it on a fence for a quick snapshot this morning. I like it a lot more than I did while it was coming together, but it’s still not quite what I wanted. My gauge was terribly off – it’s about half the size it’s supposed to be. Of course, that just means that I have plenty of yarn leftover for the next shawl. Which I’ve already started 😜

Quiet Time again (2016) Another hour of tunes to listen to as you're drifting off to sleep, or while working quietly next to an open window on an early fall evening.
TWiP: Drinking and Knitting (2014) Plenty of coffee and yarn this week. Coffee and yarn. Oh, and there was a party, too.
Weekend Favorites (2013) I'm all giddy about the completion of a big knitting project, so I chatter a little bit about that and then share the week's favorite photos and links.
Morning Coffee with Cindy Lietz (2010) Happy Monday morning, everyone! I'm happy to present today's Morning Coffee conversation. It's
She of Little Words (2007) Normally, that is not a phrase used to describe me, but it has been a busy day and will continue to
Love your photos and persistence. I like your new shawl and look forward to seeing the next one.😁
Thanks, Chloe 🙂
Love that color, and love your self-care vibe. And the projects.
I think I am one of those people who has no problem whatsoever carving out time for self care. For better or for worse 😉
