FO Friday - Week 14


I have been a bit slow this week, I have two FO's.  One only took a day but I haven't been able to finish the third as I am going to raid my friends stash to see if she has the same yarn that I have run out of!!!



I finished my Neon Orange Holden that I have to admit I love, pity it's already earmarked for a gift.  It's perfect for a day like today where it's overcast.  Adds pop to a miserable day.  Yes it's not blocked as I still don't have blocking wires.  I will have to do a mass blocking when life is alot less chaotic and Hubby makes the wires for me.


I also finished the Shizuku althought I am not too happy with this one, I could have made it longer but the nerves about running out of yarn got the better of me.



Now you have seen my FO's go and see all the other beautiful FO's on Tami's Amis Blog.  And don't forget to add yours.

    Have a wonderful weekend.

  12. The neon orange is fantastic! It sure does have that pop that a grey day needs. I hear you on the blocking. I know it's necessary, and does help things to look their best, but sometimes I just want to get to the wearing them part!!
