The heat here is unprecedented... almost 35C plus too much humidity to breathe easily and today sea water temperature is  above 31C... No one remembers something like this... I am slowing down and then getting back to normal. Had a relaxing Saturday with my knits - Clapotis #1 is growing. It is the first time ever I name a knitting project "#1' before I start the second one. There will be #2 for sure! Knitting pure wool in this hot, hot weather felt strange at first but just normal after half an hour or so. Hopefully back to sewing today.

This is the shawl that made me knit last year. Well, it was not only because I loved the way it looked, but also the drape and colour, and softness... made me want to knit one. So I started one a few days ago. It will be a big and heavy one - almost 250-300g, I think. But it will be warm. I am knitting with two strands. This gives the fabric very interesting sheen and texture. Here is one of the threads. The other is pure wool.
