Yarn Along

This week I have been recovering from a rather nasty virus, that leaves you feeling exhausted so not much to show either on the yarn front or the reading front.

After weeks of looking at a rug that I had made for the nursery, I finally sat and weaved in the ends.  I had hoped the fairies would come along and do it for me but they are obviously busy elsewhere.



I backed it with a rug liner to stop the slipping.  I won't know how effective that is until one of the little people come to stay (I mean one of my Grandchildren not one of the fairies!)
 
I had started a blanket for a new arrival but was not happy with it so that has been pulled.
I then went on to a striped blanket, which I am a whole lot happier with.

It is a simple project that I can pop in my bag and take anywhere, so once I am feeling a whole lot  better it will be a project I do alongside something else.  I am looking for a baby shawl pattern but as yet have not found one that appeals, any suggestions?
