I've been wanting to move my blog away from Blogspot for a while but could never be bothered to actually do it. This week was the tipping point though, and I've now fully migrated over to https://patsypoomakes.wordpress.com/ . The blogspot address will remain here but all new posts will only appear at https://patsypoomakes.wordpress.com/ . There are lots of reasons for the move but my biggest one is how hard Blogger has made it for people to subscribe to receive new posts via email. It's such a basic requirement but apparently, they think it's too much to offer. I'm basing this purely on how I myself prefer to consume this stuff. I can't be arsed with feed readers anymore and emails are easy and convenient. When I receive one, if I fancy reading it, I will click through to it and, if not, I'll just delete it. Another reason is the spat between Google (owners of Blogger) and Instagram/Facebook/Meta. I don't even know if this is still the case anymore ...
Well, I like to knit. A lot! However, since the end of June I haven't really done any knitting at all - and that is quite something for me. I don't know why, just haven't felt like it.
Eu adoro tricotar. Muito! Entretanto, desde o final de Junho eu não faço nenhum pontinho - o que pra mim é tempo demais. Não sei por que, não rolou vontade.
In the last couple of months though, I have - thankfully - got my knitting mojo back and have lots of projects to finish. I'm very excited about this one. It is a shawl/scarf that I started earlier this year, around March I believe, and I will be finishing before the end of this week.
Nos últimos meses, minha vontade de tricotar retornou - ainda bem! E agora eu tenho vários projetos para terminar. Eu estou bem empolgada com esse projeto. É um xale/cachecol que eu comecei em Março, eu acho, e terminarei até o final dessa semana.
The pattern is called Summer Flies and can be found on Ravelry here. It's a free one and I've really enjoyed knitting it. I chose Rowan Lima for this one and I think it's a really lovely yarn to knit with so far. Soft, warm and snuggly!
A receita se chama Summer Flies e se encontra aqui. É gratuito e eu gostei muito de fazer essa peça. Eu escolhi a Rowan Lima pra esse xale e achei essa linha muito boa. Macia, quentinha, uma delÃcia!
