Weeknote #41

• Our National Trust car sticker arrived!

• Made some gluten free blinis for the first time. The room wasn’t quite warm enough for them to prove fully but there were still great and made enough to feed a small army!

• Rang at my local church which has much lighter bells than I’m learning on

  • Called us to and from Queens on 6 bells from the treble

• Rang to and from Kings through Queens on 6 bells - I was bell 3 so took over leading for a bit in the middle!

• Dinner at Mestizo, an authentic Mexican restaurant near Warren Street in the city, with some friends. The food there is always incredible and we practically rolled home.

• Our “bulb lasagnes” have their first daffodils getting ready to flower. We can’t wait to have flowers in those pots for the next few months

• I’ve joined on day 10 of my advent yarn to the Jane Eyre jumper’s body which is starting to look a little more eclectic and stripey than I anticipated but it’s going to come out so comfy and cosy

• Attended my last company meeting at my current job. They host these quarterly so this was my final one as my last day is now in just 3 weeks!

• The yokes of the Moby Sweater (men’s) that I’m working on are very nearly finished. I’ve discovered the back contracted by ~1/2” in the time it’s taken me to do the shoulders and front so I’m extending both front and back by 6 more rows before joining for the underarm.

  • I think I might block out the yokes after I’ve done a couple of full body rounds to make sure I’m happy with the fit and length before getting too much further
