AWOL.........................................

I'm back to my Blog after a week's holiday at half-term in Fuengirola, Andalusia. We drove to Belfast airport in Sleet and icy road conditions and spent the next week either on the beach, in t-shirts and shorts, or at Fuengirola Zoo. I recommend the Zoo as well worth a visit if you are in the area. The fact that they have had so many offspring born to the inhabitants there speaks for itself. The Zoo had just re-opened when we first visited it in 2004, I was expecting my second child then and it was lovely to bring him back there and show him all the animals he had visited before but was unaware of............

While on holiday I started a new pair of socks. These are Rivendells by Janel Laidman and are being knitted in the lovely Iona Sportweight from Mackintosh Yarns.


Finally another finished knit: the Ribbed Socks in Evolution: October.

They are so soft!

Blocked!

Now to work on the other 23 Works in Progress that are in my Ravelry projects...............
