    I made a log rack(?) out of scraps for firewood in the back yard. Kid and neighbor kid helped hold wood and hammer nails. I have big plans for woodworking, but I’ve only really had success with lower aims.

    I am preparing my garden for winter. Gathering arugala, nasturtium and Cosmo seeds as I want to move them next year. Also planting more flower bulbs to fill out my flower beds as well as planting next years garlic!

      That’s so cute! I am crocheting Christmas ornaments to hang in the tree in December. A bit early but these things take a long time to make so I wanted to start early :P

        Last year I started Christmas presents in April! Only just finished in time too. This year no one gets a present! I’m pregnant 🫠🫠

          Wow that’s early! I hope I will finish my work in time… Good reason for not making presents!

      We’ve got number two on the way and my mother is furiously trying to finish another baby blanket. I wish you luck, I know baby will appreciate it.

        I considered doing a blanket but I’ve opted for beanies, mittens and socks. They take fuck all time to make. Also why the fuck is yarn for babies so expensive?!

          This is my go to pattern for baby blankets. It’s a super simple pattern that’s really quick to doand it’s really easy to modify. I did one for a friend where I made it look like a sunset over the mountains just by adjusting the row heights for each color swatch. Chevron pattern

            Thank you 😁 not sure how quick a blanket can ever be - but I’ll have to buy some yarn and give this a go.
