One a Day: Week 3 update

As it's Tuesday, here's my "One a Day" update. 

Since last week I seem to have had very little time for knitting but HAVE somehow managed to knit at least one new hexipuff every day. Some lighter colours have made their way into the pile this week and as this is the first time I've pulled them all out since last Tuesday I'm actually quite pleased with how it's coming along. 


WEEK 3 TALLY: 52 Hexipuffs
YARNS: Various sock yarns inc Nimu Torva, 
Knitting Goddess Mini-skeins, Noro Kureyon and Regia

I'll be back tomorrow with a "Work in Progress" update of the other bits and pieces that have been keeping me amused (including the Tiny Bunnies), but in the meantime I have hungry children to feed.... again (they are CONSTANTLY hungry!).

  1. Your hexis are looking good all piled up together, about how many do you think you will need?

    Kids are always hungry, I dread to think what m food bill will be like when I have three strapping lads eating me out of house and home, they don't do too badly now!

  17. When are you going to start sewing them together? And when you've finished it can I pleeeease squoosh it?
    I constantly hear, "I'm hungry, what else is there to eat?" even after a full plate of pasta and pudding! She's a mere slip of a girl, where does she put it all?
