Three barbecues in a row and a night in knitting. Reading library books and wandering through the countryside. Planning for knit night and learning to cable. Pretty daisies and a tasty fruit salad breakfast. Working on a new project and knitted bunting in situ, in store. Country beauty, urban beauty. Preparing for the Diamond Jubilee weekend and pausing for a picture. Experimenting with coloured cakes and relaxing with hot lemon drinks and Bob Dylan vinyl.
Some notes: The diamond and Union Jack jam jar lanterns are made using this tutorial.
The coloured cakes were a sad failure - I don't know if red food colouring is still made of crushed beetles, but it might as well be, the smell the cakes had about them! Straight in the bin.
I hope everyone has a fabulous four-day Jubilee weekend! I'm going to spend the afternoon making paper crowns - any excuse for a party! A ♥
Ah, your 'my week in photos' posts are delightful, in fact your entire blog fills me with happiness! Jubilee festivities sound like they raise the roof in the UK, in NZ nothing much happens aside from a long weekend. In which I will be catching up on my mittens I'm knitting and studying for upcoming uni exams..

Thankyou!! That brought a big smile to my face! We are going Jubilee crazy here in London this weekend! Unfortunately a) I'm working all through the weekend and b) in true English style, it's raining! Oooh, good luck with the mittens! And the studying :D
