I've just googled it.
It's Joe Lycett.
He's ok as a comedian but he has big shoes to fill with Claudia

The table runner is coming on.
I had to stop making octopals for a while as my hands get too achy from time to time so I need a project which doesn't require such tight work.
Anyone else got pictures of their current project they'd like to share?

New project day!
I finished knitting this jacket yesterday - although I enjoyed the challenge of getting the cables right, I am not too happy with the look of the decreases on the yoke. The picture on the pattern looks the same so I guess I will just have to live with it. Need to find some nice buttons now.
I may do some rug hooking for a change from knitting and crochet.

Have you started crocheting yet @Anthea M ???

I made a similar design a few years ago and ended up donating it to a charity shop as I couldn't live with the way the yoke ended up. I think I unpicked and re did the yoke a couple of times too before finally finishing it as it just looked odd.

I have never persevered with anything as much as I did with this! I probably spent as much time un-knitting as I did knitting.
The yarn was nice to work with though - it came from Hobbycraft. They were doing 3 for the price of 2 so it cost £20 but there is enough to make another one! (Womens Institute Aran 400g £10)

@Janine it is beautiful and that one of favourite colours (have a few of them.)
Can't see a problem on the yoke but maybe once the buttons on it may hang more happily for you. Is there a button hole right at the top or are there just two and a prest ud? If just a prestud maybe a false button on top may make a difference .. ? But to be honest I think you should be giving yourself a slap on the back .. it's gorgeous.

For me, re the one of a similar design I made, it looked fine when not worn. As soon as I put it on it just hung all wrong.
Of course it could easily be that I'm misshapen and the pattern was fine!

It is, I had that years ago when I worked in Swansea, I couldn't figure out why I was bashing into desks just try to get from A to B. It got worse and while I was off sick at home I was throwing up as well, I can't imagine what the unbalanced me trying to reach the bathroom must have looked like.....not a nice feeling at all.

I get vertigo occasionally but made a stunning discovery this week - it can be caused by taking ibuprofen! A definite link as far as I'm concerned. Horrid feeling when you have to hang on to the wall to get to the bathroom.

I've been getting it since I had concussion a couple of weeks ago. I'm learning to manage it now. It happens if I move my head quickly or bend down for any reason, or look up. Sometimes out of the blue when I'm in bed and haven't moved too, but that's happening much less now.
So basically I avoid doing any of those things as far as possible. It was difficult to start with but now I mostly remember before doing them and stop.
I don't get nausea, thank goodness. But I don't get travel or sea sick either.
I'm going to see My gp next week and give them my Spanish discharge letter to add to my records.
Also, the symptoms I'm still getting are from the concussion. But something made me collapse in the first place so I'd like that looked at.

I would use the printed design and quilt round that then decide which parts needed to stand proud (as in no quilting) and which need more texture (quilt). The background has a lot of "negative space" so needs a lot of fill quilting.
I'm making a pair of socks for Martin with all the odds and ends of sock wool I have left over. Photo when done

Sounds like you did yourself a proper mischief when you collapsed.
At least when I collapsed just over a year ago I was already sitting down, but before a sat down Robert says I was talking utter rubbish, well more than usual.
I knew I wasn't well because the ambulance crew were not being cheeky...
I am fine and it has never happened again.I hope you get rid of yours soon, it sounds like you will.
