I was making good progress until I got to the golden Lasso of Truth lol! It's going well so far, but this part may take as long by itself as the rest of the pattern! What have you guys been up to?

That Wonder Woman is looking amazing! It's not a race so take as long as you need for the Lasso. People work on WIPs for decades!

I managed to get a couple of hundred stitches this week. Prof. Carver is looking more like a human now. I'm on sick leave (nothing serious, just a cold) followed by a week of planned paid leave... so I'll have free time to catch up!

My progress is slower than usual this week. I've been trying to crochet a pair of wrist warmers which held me back a bit... I spent two days and made a lot of mistakes only to realise I'm 10g short of the yarn...which is discontinued. So I had to frog the whole thing, start over, and improvise with a different colour from the exact same yarn, at least for the wrist part which is hidden. Fun times! At least I almost finished another Discworld audiobook.

The professor definitely looks better now, although I liked him as a mischievous spirit person too lol! I hope you feel better soon!

Hope the cold clears off in time for you to enjoy the actual leave! And I agree he had a certain something when he looked like an eldritch being from The Beyond, but I suppose this is cool too. The shading in this whole pattern is really good I have to say.
