Weymouth, tomatoes and knitting

Last week, we went down to Weymouth to visit Ade's family, as his auntie and uncle were over from Australia. I've put photos on facebook, you can see them here.

I've also put some photos on facebook that cousin Paul sent to Mum. These can be seen here.

The garden has been doing well whilst we've been away. We've got some tomatoes on the tomato plants:

The carrots, spring onions and lettuce are doing well too:

The strawberry plants were a bit limp when we got back, but after a bit of water they seem to have perked up a bit. I've also pulled up all the radishes, as they all went to seed, so I might plant some more in their place.

This week, I've been mostly doing housework, but this afternoon I finished off some knitting projects that I've been meaning to do for ages!

Firstly York, knitted in Noro Silk Garden, with a zip-up front:

Then Elizabeth, knitted in Rowan Summer Tweed, with shell buttons:

Finally, Butterfly, knitted in Rowan Kidsilk Haze:
