Made it to the last clue of my local yarn crawl's mystery crochet a week late! I've definitely reached that point where I want to be done but also that I want to start Just About Anything Else. Anyone else have this problem as you near the end of a project? It's not even that I'm sick of it, it's like how your brain sabotages you by thinking of a thousand things at bedtime.

Rose city yarn crawl crochet mystery clue 3 is done in time for clue 4 tomorrow! I've even got my next audiobook ready for crochet time.

I was pretty worried when I realized how much single crochet there would be (I'm more of a crocheted lace fan for shawls and keep the sc for toys) but I'm getting better at multitasking (I can even read my paper book now, though slowly), my crochet muscles are stronger so I don't have to stop as often as I did with clue 1, and I'm really appreciating that knotbadbritt provided multiple different types of instructions: I'd never used a colour block diagram like this before and it turns out it's my favourite for this pattern!

I'm getting the vibe that Hatch doesn't appreciate me crocheting even if I'm sitting on the queen sized dog bed so I can also give him pats.

We’re spending a night at Royal Cape Yacht Club before starting our Atlantic crossing. We had to stop here to clear out of South Africa and decided it’s better to start well rested. The 20 nautical mile passage from Hout Vey was more tiring than expected. #cruisingLife #SailingTheHighSeas #CapeTown #HoutBay #SouthAfrica #RCYC
