Sorry I've been AWOL, but stuff intervened which meant I have been unable to pick up either knitting or sewing for several weeks. I had two weeks of infections which laid me low, and last week, the middle finger of my right hand was causing me so much pain, I could barely hold a pen, much less knitting needles.
This week, I feel so much better, but not sure I'll catch up with everything, so I will concentrate on what is possible.
