I really like it when I have something worthwhile to share in these weekly roundups. I’ll admit that some weeks feel a bit sparse. But this is one of those satisfying weeks, with multiple projects to share. First up, is an improvised triangular scarf I knit from some of the surprise Malabrigo from last week. Then, is the mandala I made up to go with my mom’s living room rug. I’ve shown you that before, but not fully blocked, and not on the new table where it belongs. I also have a new vest knit and a bowl of soup to share.
All of these things were either improvised completely, or were made differently from the original instructions. I must be on a creative streak 🙂
So, what is This Week in Pictures?
It’s a roundup of the little (and big!) moments I have captured all week. Some of these images are posted on Instagram, but many aren’t posted anywhere but here. Some days there may be no photos, and other days there may be multiples. It’s more laid back than the Project 365s of previous years. You can learn more here 🙂

Here’s a very short video, featuring 1.5-second moments from the week:

Halfway through, I realized I would have preferred a skinnier, more crescent shape, but I didn’t want to start over, and I like this just fine. It stretched way out when I blocked it. Bonus: It’s a chilly day today, compared to recently, so I get to wear it right away. Time to go for a walk and get my cheeks nice and pink 😊

Thursday
This particular soup is a chicken vegetable number that I adapted for the slow cooker from a recipe I found on @christinacarleton’s blog in 2008 or so. Thanks for sharing, Chris. I’ve gotten several years of enjoyment out of this recipe 😁
I hope to find some time in the next week to share my changes to the recipe. It really is one of my favorites to make and eat.

Same Week Previous Years (2014-2020)
[…] changed it up in some way. See the Vertical Hold Wrap (slightly asymmetrical triangle) and this unnamed scarf from last year (severely asymmetrical triangle) for proof. This one is more of a crescent. It doesn’t come […]
