KnitKnatKnotUK: Cycling the Bristol to Bath railway path
http://knitknatknotuk.blogspot.com/2014/04/cycling-bristol-to-bath-railway-path.html
Tuesday, 1 April 2014. Cycling the Bristol to Bath railway path. Saturday was one of those perfect spring days, better than summer because it was warm enough to sit and enjoy a mug of tea outdoors but not so hot that I suffer with sunburn and heatstroke. Too hot for me, when I'm active, is over 20 degrees! I had to persuade the husband that really he wanted to go for a bike ride and not play golf. I promised a pub stop, and he played golf on Sunday. The 13 mile Bristol to Bath cycle path. So far 25 miles...

KnitKnatKnotUK: Not Just Another Granny Square Blanket - DONE!
http://knitknatknotuk.blogspot.com/2012/10/not-just-another-granny-square-blanket.html
Friday, 5 October 2012. Not Just Another Granny Square Blanket - DONE! But I digress, the brief from my 16yo was a "Cath Kidston snuggly blanket for TV slobbing" so it didn't need to be big but it is big, plenty big enough for her double bed under the eaves in the attic! It covers two on the sofa too, we tried it out tonight as I am holding off on putting the heating on still. The edging is 6 rounds of granny clusters, how easy is that? The patchwork teddy was made by my mum aka Granny when our smallest ...

KnitKnatKnotUK: May 2014
http://knitknatknotuk.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, 17 May 2014. Table runner - DONE! I did finish my table runner a couple of months ago but I forgot to blog it! The family don't "get" it. Anyway, I like it! Just don't look too closely at the workmanship. I had painted our old pair of treacly 1930s chairs before Christmas, and recovered the seats in spare curtain fabric, and lightened the table by painting the fascia and legs too. It means we can sit 8 without having to rope in the computer chair and piano stool! Labels: pom pom trim. Small-Sca...

KnitKnatKnotUK: Sourdough bread
http://knitknatknotuk.blogspot.com/2014/06/sourdough-bread.html
Friday, 6 June 2014. My first successful sourdough loaf. The sourdough queen, was offering 10 prizes of her sourdough starter culture on twitter, she uses a starter that is over 100 years old and originated from the South of France. How romantic! I retweeted, commented on her blog and thought of it no more until she emailed me the next day that I was a lucky winner. You would think I had won the lottery. It really made my day. They are also available at Bakery Bits. I also bought a Mason Cash baking stone.
