I’m going away for a week, to a little cottage in the middle of nowhere that has no internet. Since I’m feeling so run-down and overwhelmed by the many things I’ve been trying (and failing) to get done this seems like it will be a welcome break. I’ll be staying with my mum and aunt, hillwalking, reading, baking and of course knitting. I think I’ve caught up on my-need-to-respond-to email, but not at all on the want-to-respond-to-stuff, so apologies for that. Thank you for all of the lovely comments lately, I wish I’d had a chance to respond to them all personally.
If you’re currently working on one of my patterns I obviously won’t be around to answer questions, but there are some wonderfully helpful people on craftster, ravelry and the knitty coffee shop that I’m sure will be able to help you out.
I’ll be back in a week or so, hopefully a lot more refreshed and ready to tackle some pattern writing and new designing. Until then I’ll leave you with some pretty photos of things other people have made from my patterns. Plus – look what Clarabelle’s already finished!

You will feel so much better after that beak. Enjoy the calm and country air!
Have a great vacation, breathe deep and enjoy. I am sure you will.
dear Ysolda, have a good time, relax and enjoy!
I hope you get the rest you need! Sometimes a small break to unplug from the world is all a person needs.
I’m soo jealous of your week-long seculsion in the middle of nowhere! …Knitting, baking, hillwalking and such sounds like soo much fun! I went my FH’s reunion for a week by a lake, but his family is big, and I didn’t get to have much “quiet” or “relaxation”, or even hiking. I hope you get the rest & relaxation you need.
Have a good holiday…… I am sure you will feel so much better once you return!
I am jealous of you!
I’m guessing you’re back as you just posted on City Knitty, hope you had a good time. have you seen that you are on Boing Boing?
