So last weekend was Leeds Wool Festival, I went last year with my mam and my sister and it was a nice little festival and obviously very local, I wasn't really planning on going, hadn't made up my mind. Then my friend said she would meet me and help with the kids (yes it still feels completely weird to say that).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On the morning of the festival my sister decided to come too.</div>

We parked at Kirstall where the cinema is as the actual car park was super busy and tiny last year, Theo was in is Caboo sling which is a new one to me, i had a moby with martha and never got on with it, but with martha in the smallest pushchair we have (we have 3, don't judge) we were off.</div>

I have been casting on like crazy this and I don't care. I never did the whole 'nesting' thing with Martha frankly the concept bugs me, yes tidy and prepare before baby comes but I'm not sure I believe in it. <div><br></div><div>However I do believe in casting on ALL of the things before baby comes and getting everything to a nice 'easy' point that should you manage a little knitting here and there then you can do it without loosing your mind. </div><div><br></div><div>We all know the digging out the needles and casting on and starting and trying figure out where increases and patterns go is frankly a pain so if I can get past those 'tricky' bits then that's great. </div><div><br></div><div>Or even better finish projects I know I've not got a chance of doing coz it's a more complicated pattern or they are long old rows. </div><div><br></div><div>Anyway so on the needles currently. </div><div><br></div><div>I picked up my pebble bean head shawl which I've had on the needles for ages. It's been 'stuck' at 20% so I thought I would try and finish is. I thought if I did say 5% a day then it would be done before baby right? </div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_6yorXIJKHk/VwC9YVXj1RI/AAAAAAAAZ3M/iDnzowLGfos/s640/blogger-image--1445679905.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_6yorXIJKHk/VwC9YVXj1RI/AAAAAAAAZ3M/iDnzowLGfos/s640/blogger-image--1445679905.jpg"></a></div> </div><div>So I've been really good at doing my 5% I hadn't done it by 10.30 the other night and I sat up ( like a crazy person) and did it. And then I woke up silly early and did my 5% the next day </div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Yvb_VO1xQCU/VwC9boLT11I/AAAAAAAAZ3Q/ffVt0fj4O34/s640/blogger-image-903304855.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Yvb_VO1xQCU/VwC9boLT11I/AAAAAAAAZ3Q/ffVt0fj4O34/s640/blogger-image-903304855.jpg"></a></div> </div><div>Can you see how additive this could be? Oh I'll just get to the next % </div><div><br></div><div>And then the other day I did like 25% in a day and now I'm on 60%.
