Just a quick post to share a few finishes from this week as we are having a few days away. First up is my Chookshed Challenge - the sashiko wall hanging. Well there was not a lot of sewing on this - minimal sashiko stitching and bonded leaves. If the leaves had not been such a complicated shape I would have spent time and appliqued them. But it is what it is.
For the time being it is on the hanger that I use for my seasonal minis as it is autumn and appropriate.
On the subject of autumn, I decided this week with the chillier mornings that porridge time had arrived. So I thought I would make myself a bowl cosy. I found some instructions online and away I went while I had the machine out to finish the panel.
It turned out well although could have been smaller and I am not keen on the 'ears'! Next time I will round those corners off. Worked perfectly with my porridge bowl though.
And my last finish is the scrappy DK socks. All ready to go in my walking shoes.
I used slightly over 50g of WYS 4ply Pennyroyal and 64g of leftover 4ply from previous socks. I divided each scrap ball roughly into two for a 'matching' pair.
That is all from me today - have a great weekend.
Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! That's three cheers for three finishes. I love your challenge project and it looks stunning on the Autumnal hanger!
