I am well behind on this project, but I am still hopeful of finishing 26 things by the end of the year. Term 4 is proving to be quite busy, with end-of-year reports and a junior end-of-year show item to teach to my class, plus sewing the 21 turtle costumes for the children to wear! I am about to make my prototype turtle costume, so I will be back to share that hopefully next weekend. In the meantime, here are a couple of baby cardigans for the gift drawer that I knitted in the last school holidays.
