I havent really got much knitting done this week but plugged along on the patonyle wool socks and finished them.
Im also at the heel of 2nd Baudelaire sock,love that pattern but a my Nightime project it only gets a little while as my eyes go crosseyed with tiredness!
On the work front I was awarded my position as Senior Gardener, hip hip horray!!!!! No doubt a couple may be miffed for reasons of their own,but Im very pleased as were quite few staff(must be the cakes I bring in on Smoko days) and they gave me this!!!
I love getting flowers(or any gift as we all do) but this was totally unexpected which made it so nice! Im lucky to work with a lovely bunch of persons!!!
Ill finish with a nice veiw from my pride and glory at work,an Ornamental Cherry!!!!!The best its ever been!
Congratulations!

I LOVE how you've spun Lotus Blossom - it'll make gorgeous socks!
ReplyDeleteCongrats again on the job luvvy :-)
This photo is even prettier of the Lotus Blossom than the one on the gallery page- I LOVE it. I can only imagine how cool and fun it was to see those colours being created like that...too cool.
ReplyDeleteHow nice they gave you a bouquet of flowers! Pretty, Pretty!
Are those Clivias at your home then?
I would like to know the tree name as well- perhaps a flowering almond of some sort??
Deep pink flowers like that are amazing- and they are so abundant!
Had fun last night- wish we'd had a chance to chat more- please blog about Perth-ok??
I am curious to learn more....wrote to you in the comments box on the other blog ( Mandie's I believe- but not sure you saw it- so thought I would mention it again, here.
Spring is here for sure!
Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your promotion, you deserve it.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about "plugging along". That's what I'm doing with my knitting at the moment.
