Well I didn't make it up to the castle yesterday as Bella and I spent the afternoon in Mum's back garden. I haven't had such a chilled afternoon for ages!
So last night I was in fine fettle for going round to see my friend Lindsay to help make her husband's hose. We're making joined Fifteenth Century Hose. We'd already done the body block and cut out the wool. Last night we did the lining and fittings. He might have new hose by the end of April! We have to join the lining and the outer together and put the gusset in, followed by point holes to point it to the doublet.
Pete, my beloved husband (and king numpty as he spend the entirety of last night playing Angry Birds) needs a new pair of hose for the weekend. I'm away tomorrow and Wednesday, I'm off to London to spend time with two of my best friends. Pete needs to be in Leeds for Good Friday. That doesn't really leave me any time to make them. I'm good, but I'm not that good!
