I'm back!!!

 Wow, nearly 2 years since I last posted.   Because I've been really just knitting, I've found ravelry and Instagram to be good ways to document my work, so havent felt the need to blog.

However, I've recently got back into my first love,  cross stitching.  I had the urge to start.  In my chart stash was mini Minervas Melody . I bought it in 2019.   I've always loved this so decided to start. 

Artwork is by Josephine Wall and charted by HAED 

I'd like to finish this in 3 years.  Since knitting is still my main craft, I'll need to stitching 2400 per month.  I'm not including October in that, as that is Mystery knitalong month which takes all my crafting time. 

My progress so far


I'm stitching on 16ct Aida easy count from Stitch NZ.  So far I've done 2633 out of 80115, 3.29%
