It feels like it's been a very short week here.
We had public holidays for Good Friday 19 April and Easter Monday 22 April. And then on Thursday 25 April it was another public holiday for ANZAC Day, where we honour the Australians and New Zealanders who have fought for our countries.
So there's only been 3 work days this week, and it's also school and university holidays, so my university student has been back home this week. Fortunately the good weather has returned and it feels like one final reminder of summer today, before we get ready for winter.
I'm still plodding away on my Kaffe Fassett scarf in Rowan wool. I've found I can't do it at nights, because the arms on my arm chair are too close to accommodate my knitting style! Therefore I'm trying to add a few rows each day while I sit on the sofa.
On the quilting front I'm adding a few green blocks to my Shuttles quilts from Quilts in Morocco by Kaffe Fassett.
Now it's time for the Peacock Party.
I've started playing a little game with myself where I try to guess from the link photo who wrote the post. Sometimes I get it right, but sometimes I'm surprised, I'm trying to visit at least 5 of the links every week. I do appreciate everyone who links up, but I just don't have time to visit every link and also answer comments on my blog. I hope you understand.

Peacock Party and a new scarf
Well, another week has flown by and it's time for the Peacock Party again.
The temperatures are starting to get cooler now, so I've started knitting a scarf. I love the scarf on the cover of this Rowan pattern book, so I'm making one for myself. Of course the fact that Kaffe Fassett designed these colour ways probably explains why I like it!
As you read this I'm currently in Napier on the east coast of the North Island of New Zealand. If you've sailed around New Zealand on a boat cruise you might have stopped at Napier. There's a lot of vineyards in Hawkes Bay, and we're going to be visiting at least 3 of them. I'll report back next week!
So, onto the Peacock Party. Feel free to link up a post showing what you've been up to recently.
