Well, today we were going to take a trip out to Heaths Country Store. It is a shop I’ve been wanting to visit for ages. The website is just so lovely and the shop looks so quaint. And, well, I don’t ever need an excuse to buy more yarn (or so I [...]

This evening, I have finished off my Booga Bag.
Yesterday, during my ’snow’ day, I felted it in my washing machine. It was so much fun! It came out smaller and fluffy

I am currently on my second basic sock. I ran out of yarn so needed some more. These are biiiiig socks! But I am enjoying knitting with them as the yarn is so yummy (colinette jitterbug).
I ordered a second skein from Get Knitted [getknitted.com] and have now started knitting the second sock. [...]

Just a little note …
For some reason, only some of my comments are being emailed to me. This is quite annoying. I don’t want to allow you to just post without needing approval as I am getting an awful lot of spam comments that I, obviously, don’t want to fill my site with. [...]

No photos today as I am feeling so tired. I just don’t have the energy to find the camera, take photos, upload resize etc etc. I was so tired that I nearly fell asleep in class. One child caught me and shouted across the class “Miss, you’re falling asleep!” I decided [...]
