The last couple of weeks has been busy in a number of ways. I still have a lot of time on my hands since I'm mostly at home during the day, but we've been visiting friends and family and done a lot of stuff at home.
I've started to run around the park with a podcast called 5K101 which will get me to run for 30 mins without the need to stop for rest. I'm on week 4 of 8 now and so far so good, it's starting to be tough to keep up but I'm determined (plus I bribe myself with yarn after each completed level). I hate running and think it's so boring, but the podcast is coaching me and I have improved and my body has started to respond to the workouts. After the runs I also add some arms and abs exercise, just for good measure. I'm impressed with myself, I never ever thought I'd be able to drag myself out in the park 3 times a week, several weeks in a row!
April knitting has been on the socks and shawls theme. I've finished my
Zoe - 'if it moves, shoot it' shawl, it's huge, cosy and gorgeous! I'm still working on
Pop Spots, the rows are so looooong now, almost neverending.
I've knit 1.5 pairs of socks, just started on the 4th sock. I'm participating in 2 KAL's to knit socks this year. It's surprisingly satisfying and fairly quick to knit. I squeezed in a small hat in the midst, an easy lace slouchy hat, a new favourite!
