I'm 66 years old so I don't have enough time left to knit the same thing twice... but I'm reknitting a Ballintemple for me in my favorite lavender because the first one turned out so well. I also have a pair of Bitty Blooms waiting for a SMAUG. Inspirational #ShowMeYourKnits

My pitch to Danny Boyle for his expanding horror franchise, a prequel to 28 Days Later (2002)

28 Years Earlier: Ballintemple
Set in S.Ireland in 1974, Cillian Murphy's character, Jim is going through the 'terrible twos'. His mammy is knackered.

That's as far as I've got.

Absolutely my kryptonite. Ballintemple just needs the dreaded sleeves. #knitsky

Final #WIP of the day is Ballintemple by Stolen Stitches knit in a glorious will/alpaca blend. Yes, I'm actually knitting sleeves but if I don't finish this by September 12 then it goes into timeout since I will be starting Nim Teasdale's Wisterious. #ShowMeYourKnits

And three sweaters still in process. I hate knitting sleeves. #ShowMeYourKnits

In local news: the footpaths in Ballintemple are being renewed at the moment. Some traffic disruption but this will be a great relief to those who worried that the crumbling concrete paths might damage their tyres.

So I DO NOT SWATCH. However I do knit several inches of a pattern with my chosen needle and yarn to see how it works up. This is @stolenstitches.bsky.social Ballintemple knit in Valley Yarns Becket, an alpaca/wool blend. #knitsky

#WIPWednesday, the dreaded sleeves. A modified Ballintemple from Carol Feller of @stolenstitches.bsky.social in Lion Brand Color Theory Provence.

This week in #ShowMeYourKnits is FLOOF, fluffy yarn or a fluffy yarn held together with another yarn. Although the hat isn't floofy, I do love the fur pom.

Flooding disruption in Ballintemple area with roads closed.

It would be useful if Cork City Council moved to Bluesky but requests to do so would probably be classed as unnecessary criticism talking the city down. #SpeirGorm

We go to swimming in Lavanagh centre & while sitting in the car waiting outside there are motorists speeding on Park Ave. street. This is also a school street & very narrow. Speeding happens every time I'm there without fail by rat-running motorists.

Seeing videos of drones over Ballintemple.

Beside the fact that airspace over our homes has been handed to a Dublin company (Cork people have to give notice to launch drones to search for missing people), has anyone thought about what happens when they're weaponised by the Russians ?
