middle, muddle, puddle
I don't have anything to show this week, though I have finished a pair of fingerless gloves, which I started probably about a year ago. The yarn is Rowan cashmarino aran, and is not hardwearing at all, and the pattern is knitted in the round on 4 dpns.
My workroom is more or less finished, just needing 'my touches' you know the things that go to make it personal.
We went to see 'Valkyri' yesterday and, while I was perching on the edge of my seat, as it was a cracking good yarn well told, that Tom Cruise (euyuck,grr) did spoil it a bit for me. There were close-ups of him that showed his 'internal angst' but, I felt he was just being Tom Cruise for the most part, whereas the others in the cast were marvellous. Go and see it. To my shame though, I didn't know if the plan to kill off hitler had come off, as I didn't know the date of his death! Crap, I am at history.
Which is quite pertinent, actually. Mr T was telling me, yesterday, that I am crabbit, as they say, here, for mardy or moody. And, apparently, I was blaming him for stuff that just wasn't his fault. You know the way we do.
Well, I had a think about it and realised that yes, I was being crabby, and it was because the start of my OU course was on Saturday, and I need to get down to it and just get on with it. I always get nervous at the start of a course, thinking 'EEk, I just don't know about this!' Whether I can do it etc So, I guess I'll just start at the beginning, and see where I get to.
And, let Mr T know that I forgive him!

Hiya, interesting to read what you thought of Valkyri, my husband wants to see it but I wasn't sure. Against my rational judgement though I always find myself loving Tom Cruise (eek) so it might be a good one for me!
And hey, if you can't be a bit crabbit with your other half, who can you do it with?! Mine is just as bad as me so he gets even :D

Thank you, shabby chick, I wish I could luurve TC, but I just can't! It is a cracker of a film, though, hope you enjoy it.
That's what he's there for isn't it? (tee hee) You will feel better once you start, it'll be fine, you'll see. Flick xxx
I forgot to say thank you for your lovely comment on my post with the things I made for my Mum, I really hope she will like them!!

shabby chick: you are most welcome, and I'm sure she will - it's the love that's sewn in which does it, every time!
