Jackson sweater and a crochet endeavor

Hey people it’s been a while the Jackson sweater has been completed but i over estimated the neck measurements it hang just over the shoulders rather than resting on so I’ve re drawn the neck up with new measurements and will have to rip back and alter it before writing the pattern up, it needs to be correct for photographing so you all can see what your knitting. other than that i’ve had a busy time at work and my birthday last weekend which i wasn’t very well for due to a swollen gland which is a lot better that it was also hurt my thumb, i was separating two shopping baskets when getting groceries and caught my nail on the edge of the basket when loosening them and instead of the nail bending back it was too tough and tore from the skin under my nail and so I’ve had a swollen thumb all week thankfully it’s feeling much better. On Saturday while i waited for the clock to turn for my birthday at midnight i learn’t how to make granny squares and was making them till 2am which was awesome i’ve now got a collect of about 20 squares in lovely sublime merino silk dk yarns in beautiful colours i’m either making a blanket or a top for summer we’ll see.
