Another Sunday and Project Finishing


Finished the first Guernsey Wrap in Knit Picks overspun sportweight wool in the colourway Ash; and it is now drying. Followed the instructions and did a sewn bind off. Loved, loved, loved knitting this pattern. Can't wait to make it again.

Next off the needles is Ishbel, which will be blocked tomorrow.

Sad News: 62 Degrees North has shut down. I managed to score a few skeins before they closed.

Watched The Tudors. The sex was tiring; the historical inaccuracies were jarring and the graphic, but often accurate, grusome executions gave me nightmares. Usually the character of Henry VIII dominates films where he is the subject. But the actors who played, Anne Boleyn, Sir Thomas More, Earl of Surrey, Cromwell totally overshadowed the actor who played Henry. Even though I knew the fate of the other characters as well as Henry's, they acted their characters so well I wasn't distracted wanting them to get on with what was suppose to happen next.
