All day I have had the feeling it's Friday. It even went as far as me posting my Friday {this moment} and then sitting here wondering where everyone else's was!!! It was 14:30 before I realised it's actually Thursday. What an idiot!
I suspect this was due to my mind being full of many many things and really not being present enough today. This would also explain why I completely missed lunch and then felt tetchy this afternoon.
Lovely wrap & sloppy sleepy-wrapping! |
Regardless, we had a pretty good day. Not only did I get onto the most fully booked Pilates class ever (I had been 9th on the waiting list for a week, AND there was a creche place for the Little Miss) but we also got back from the club to find our new Oscha Slings Woven Wrap. I was thrilled to get it - not just because the hand-dyed fabric is absolutely beautiful, but also because we got to be the second official customers of a friend I met online a few years ago. I am certain her business is set for success with such fabulous products and a genuine understanding and love of babywearing herself.
It got the full approval of my wrappee too - she went to bed for her nap but woke upset with a snuffly cough (hayfever/cold/other??) and there was only one thing for it. She went straight back to sleep before I'd finished wrapping her and stayed there for a few hours after she woke and while we collected My gorgeous happy Boy from school. (I'm not used to Pilates or several hours of babywearing a 2 year old in one stretch, and am feeling surprisingly nimble this evening - let's hope it lasts.)
And it's been a quietly crafty day for me too. A little knitting and after completing the crochet Apple Jacket yesterday (more on that in tomorrow's FO Friday post!) I decided to try something else so I spent a couple of hours playing around with a hook and some scrap yarn which I really enjoyed.
Tomorrow I need to complete some things for a Blessingway I'm attending on Sunday (I haven't been to one before and am really looking forward to it!) Also on my mind are some further crochet projects as I have a pack of yarn coming any day for the purpose *grin*.
Almost all of the crochet patterns I love are from Lucy at the Attic 24 blog. This is the blog that really inspired me to learn to crochet and in celebration of my first steps, here are my 5 favourite beginner's patterns.

I'm looking forward to sharing my finished objects tomorrow - I hope to see you then! Night night xxx
Sarah, If I've never taken the time before to tell you how inspiring you are, then my bad. Love the new word, love all your projects and how the 'urge' gets to you!
