I finished a second slightly larger hat and they are now both in a postie bag ready for the mail box but it's such a wet day they can wait till one of us needs to go out.
I have now started a bigger project; a small blanket ; using left over wool from other projects ( over many years ). Its in DK so that's a change for me.
I have also started a hand sewing project - (nothing worth showing yet.)
The garden is getting a big drink today. This vireya rhododendron photo was taken last week and it now has 3 other heads of flower out. It has a wonderful perfume. Not all vireyas do have - often it is the white or pale colours that do have the lovely almost heady smell. ( similar to the deciduous azaleas )
Staying in. Keeping warm .
I hope you are all safe and well!

Sounds like you are having similar weather to us here. The knitted hats are cute. There is a vireya rhododendron outside the room my Mum is in at the Matua home, it is a beautiful red/orange.
The little hats have turned out beautifully and the rhododendron is stunning. We are having a very wintry weekend here too, with lots of snow on our surrounding hills. Fortunately, none here in town. Probably the coldest day of the year.
Such pretty hats! With summer coming close to ending here I'm taking up my knitting needles again. I have a feeling with the current state of things there will be plenty of knitting time this winter - not going far!
Beautiful Rhodie - I can almost smell it from here!
Stay well and be safe Ali.
