I am on a two week
assignment in a tiny little village in Hampshire called Wherwell.
It is a quaint village built along the banks of the river Test.
It
really is tiny, not much more that a primary school, a Pub, a Hairdresser
and a couple of other official looking businesses,
some stunning thatched cottages
and some really large houses.
It
has been so beautiful the last three mornings with ice on the ground and the
sun shinning. There are still some trees with autumn leaves on, but the
scenery is changing by the day.
With all the
rain the last few weeks the
normally sedate Test River is running much faster and is quiet wide at parts.
feed the ducks
and the fish, look at the size of them, and walk a short way along the common
to Chilbolton, which is the next village
and is a bit bigger as it even has village
shop!
When I have some down time or a break I like to knit or crochet. I brought along a knitting project this time.
I am trying to get two pullovers done double quikc for my twin grandsons. I seem to be gettign on betterr than I thought I would, maybe
I should have brought some more
wool.
It is such a nice pattern to knit!
Have a good week!
Hugs Cxxx

Oh how lovely a place! And your sweater looks great! Kit
After living in Winchester for many years Wherwell is a village I've often visited. It is magical when the Mayflies emerge in spring and you see the trout jumping.
Thanks for the memory.
Beautiful sweater. What I wouldn't GIVE to visit there.

What lovely scenes...especially the cottage and foot bridge. I would enjoy visiting there.
