Well, it was my Mam's birthday yesterday and I am finally going to give her the the wrapover I made for her birthday. I saw her the weekend before Mother's Day and it was so tempting to give it to her then.
The BF persuaded me to leave it until her birthday, along with a bottle or raspberry liquer (is that how you spell it? she wonders) and a box of chocs from my bellydancing weekend in Jersey.
Hope she likes it.
...and here's the progress so far on "Tulip". I finished one of the front's last night and started the other, which really isn't bad progress for a week, especially when I've also been touching up the grout in the bathroom and planting flowers in the garden to make the house look nice for selling.
In a fit of enthusiasm, I almost blocked the back...before finishing the fronts, which need to be sized up against the back for the measurements.
That would not have been clever.

Lovely knits. Tulip is looking fantastic. It's all your fault I've bought some damask now ;)
That wrapover top looks lovely, and I bet it feels soooo nice--Freedom Spirit is such lovely yarn.
