That was quick!

One finished No-purl Monkey. This felt like the quickest knit ever.
Don't they go well with my purple Crocs?
However instead of casting on for the second I decided I really ought to make a start on the second of Tony's Christmas socks... ooops. I should have lots of knitting time on the train this weekend as we are off to Brussels on Thursday for 4 nights.
Whilst out getting Euro's at lunchtime I took a few more Birmingham photos....

Fairy lights aren't just for Christmas...

Continuing with the Birmingham photo theme.... I walk past these magic trees in the grounds of the Cathedral every evening on my way home. I will be a little bit sad when it is too light in the evening to see the fairies in the trees.

This weeks train knitting has been Kerry's Christmas socks...

I think they might be ready for your birthday! Looking cool though :0) I just hope they are not too big!

Progress on little Joshua's blanket continues at a pace

All other knitting and crochet has been put to one side to try and finish this by next Thursday... 5 more squares and a border left. My favourite square so far is the third row down, second from the left; yellow, white and blue. I think these would be great colours for a complete blanket. Which is your favourite?
I think I may have been inspired by this wonderful ceiling:

I walk past it every day and I thought it was about time I took a photo. It is Bennetts bar on Bennetts Hill in Birmingham; I think it used to be a bank.
There are lots of fabulous buildings with amazing details really near my office, I'll try and take a few photos over the next couple of weeks. Here are two I took the other day
