So I unpicked it and restitched with another bit of green net.
This was the right way up in my photos. Cant seem to change it, Anyway, this bottom picture is yesterday's scruffy base and is now much better.
It was a housework sort of day today, and a do a bit more Elderberry Bunny knitting sort of afternoon. I am on the head now, having finished the body and legs yesterday. Progress.
I hope no-one had been directly affected by Storm Chantra but the flooding in the West Country looks dreadful. I could hear the rain pelting the French Windows yesterday, but didn't realize it was seeping through until I pulled the curtains and saw a couple of small puddles on the tiles at the edge of the window, and splash marks on my Ashford spinning wheel. It's double glazed, so surely should be waterproof? Some ingress definitely from the windows as the spinning wheel splashed. I will have to get busy with some polish when I've rubbed it down. I've moved it away from the window now. My box of Christmas decorations, which hides behind the big curtains, had taken in water too so that is moved to the Library now. No damage inside though. I will have to get the French Windows checked out - the sill on them needs replacing for starters as where I "mended" it this summer, the paint has come off already from damp.
