It’s starting to feel like summer is coming – although perhaps a very wet summer.  Still, the world is green and the temperatures are higher than they used to be.  We’ve also just had a long weekend here in Canada – Victoria Day weekend – and we took the opportunity to go out to the cottage to make sure it was still standing after the winter.  It was very nice and relaxing, and I managed to start a new project.  I decided that I need a summer top – preferably soon.  So I cast on and have knit perhaps 10-12 cm of the body.  It’s a little hard to see, because it just won’t lie flat at the moment, but it’s coming along.

The yarn is Wollmeise 100%, and I believe the colour is Sabrina, but I have misplaced the tag, so I’m not sure.  In any case, it’s a lovely colour, and I think it will make a very nice top.

I have also made a few more tiles for the Stained Glass Window Tiles afghan project.  I’m up to 32 tiles so far, and there’s still a lot of yarn (and tiles) to go.  I’m enjoying making new tiles and patterns and trying out new colour-combinations.  It will be quite a puzzle when it’s time to join them all together though.
