I have figured out how to stay cool and knit in the pool!!
All you need is a plastic tub and no-one else in the pool...
Waves are NOT good ;)
Until next time
I hope you've enjoyed reading this blog, are enjoying this beautiful summer weather we're having and are staying cool!
Keep those needles and hooks moving!
Happy and Productive knitting
