I think these dandelions turned out beautifully. I think I am going to keep this one.

24 for 2024 #24: Koki Drawstring Bag by qh Textiles
Getting a bit of this done. it should go fairly quickly once I get back to it. My only concern is running out of thread.
Last Box, I Think
I believe this is the last of my Black Needle Society boxes. As you can see, this one had a bunch of extras and little stitchy goodness.

Another baby, another afghan. This is for Madelynn, Andreas' cousin's daughter. I hope she enjoys it.

Yarn for Babies
The embassy is having a baby boom. I will be using these four skeins of local yarn to make two of the baby afghans. The solo blue skein is a bonus freebie.

I've officially started one of the kits from The Drawn Thread that I bought in Wales last October. Yay! And I think it'll be pretty.

This little piece is definitely going to be a keeper when it's done. It'll take quite a while to get done, though.

Diverso Lunch
This pizza restaurant is the little brother of the Michelin starred restaurant next door. Andreas took me here for lunch. Yes, it's a bit more expensive than other pizza places. It's also right next door to the Sejm, so it gets a lot of politicians. Pizza and salad were very good, but the pickled onions were pickled in something too sweet for my liking.

24 for 2024 #4: Little Blue Mitten by Napa Needlepoint
Needless to say this isn't going to be blue. Cuff's almost done. The mitten part will be bigger bargello.
Lunch Out
There was nice weather on a Friday, so Andreas took me out to lunch. This place is about a ten minute walk from the office. It's good, too. Right on Plac Konstitucja, it's called U Szwejka. We split a schnitzel and each had a soup - he had zurek and I had gulash. Both were nice and warming. We had leftovers, too.

Skunk Pillows
My little skunks are all finished up now. These were the materials from the kit that came with. They look cute.
