We've given ourselves a quiet-ish couple of weeks as we knew this was about to happen —
Yes, our first calf!
Her mum is on the left. The white cow was acting like she might calve last night so we separated her from the rest of the mob too.In The Palace, I did a LOT more tidying - and didn't get distracted by random side-tracks this time(!). I unearthed some more partially completed Omigosh! blocks so sewed them up, making two more blocks for that (very long term) project.
And one more (6") churndash too —
My evening knitting is going quite well and I've nearly finished the sleeves. The blue wool you see there is all I have left. It's enough for a few more blue rows on the second sleeve, to match the first. The gold on top looks a bit silly in the photo but matches the rest of the jersey just fine!
'til next time,
happy stitches,
Lots of lovely progress.
ReplyDeleteHope the weather stays fine for calving. Today it is wet, wet, wet here in the South.

And the busyness begins with the first calf…
ReplyDeleteLike those OMGOSH blocks and another nice Churn.
Hope you have enough wool for the sleeve …
Nice blocks and your knitting must nearly be finished. Cute calf. xx
ReplyDeleteThose blocks look quite fiddly.
ReplyDeleteHow lovely to have a baby calf...
It is so fun to watch the calves when they start frisking around. :)
ReplyDeleteDo you have any idea how far along you are with your OMIGOSH quilt? Halfway? More? Less?
That sunset is gorgeous!
And so it starts, the first calf! Great blocks Raewyn.
ReplyDeleteYou are really keeping up with the block a day project. Very impressive. Hope you enjoy your quiet time.
