Update

Knitting news!
I finished square 3 of 6 for my sons blanket. Pattern is the ten stitch blanket square (free on ravelry) and I'm using cascade 220 quatro.
I also finished the zuzu'spetals cowl for my mum, I used fondant fibre bfl/silk dk. I also finished the helical hat using fondant fibre hardy high twist held double (but I don't have a decent picture).
I decided to finally cast on a second hitchhiker shawl and these were my two yarn choices, both by the yarn tree.
Left - sw merino/nylon/stellina in Vincent and the Doctor
Right - sw merino/bamboo in Hogwarts express to Ravenclaw
I decided to cheer myself up by winding my chosen yarn...sadly I butchered it but it's still beautiful I'll just have more ends to weave in.
I think it's looking really nice :)
I cast on some mother's day socks for myself using the yarn tree yarn from her mother's day box (information on her blog or Facebook group).
Spinning news!
I've spun a rolag on my spindle and my akerworks bobbins arrived (and are gorgeous), sadly I can't use them yet as my wheel has had to be moved to avoid a leak.
Goodies!
The yarn tree Batman v Superman box arrived :) I love it, full details can be found on her blog or Facebook group.
Yarns: left - Lex Luther v The Joker & right - Batman v Superman
Happy crafting!
