Slow and steady! Main body of the mermaid’s tail is complete, just two flappers/fins to go, hoping I have enough yarn.
Another book by Bill Bryson. This one a birthday present, 2015 from my eldest son, finally at the top of the pile in the bedroom. Funny as ever on the subject of us odd Brits, and our wonderful countryside. Just saying!

D > It’s a tricky thing mixing knitting with Bill Bryson. Even if you don’t try doing both at the same time, you can find yourself continuing to chuckle over something you read earlier that you forget to start the increase/decrease!
Pshaw! Flippers are nothing compared to the body! You are sooo close.
Hope so, determined to finish by next week.
That mermaid’s tail is such a beautiful colour!!
Thank you
Really looking forward to seeing your mermaid’s tail. My niece would really like one, so I might be knitting or crocheting her one.
I can’t wait to see it now with a child inside it!
I love Bill Bryson, and I’m hoping to get to that one eventually. My favorite of his is “A Walk in the Woods,” but that’s partly because I love the mountains and hiking.
Love the texture on your mermaid tail!
I loved A wlk in the Woods too, the film was a disappointment I thought!
I love the shine on that yarn! I hadn’t noticed it before.
I don’t think it really shines, that was sunshine!
I just finished a baby mermaid tail – almost the exact same color. I’ll have to check that book out. It sounds very interesting.
Mine is for a 3 year old, it seems to have taken me ages. Should be done by next week. Bill Bryson, is funny.
Maybe I should look for the book in the library. I enjoyed the ‘Notes from a Small Island’.
Oh yes, do, it’s funny!
I’ve never read any Bill Bryson. An author to look out for!
Reeling in amazement! His observations are very funny!
