Niamhy is full of the cold. She is teething and she is grumpy. So, to save my sanity and to give her a bit of fresh air we went into Worksop town centre for a bit of a mooch around. I do like mooching and wandering into charity shops, looking in shop windows and just [...]

The Lucy Stylecraft pack of yarn has just fallen into my basket at Mason’s Needlecraft and I accidentally pressed ‘purchase’. Oh noes. Bah, I need something to cheer me up. Granny Stripe here I come! After the Christmas knitting is out of the way, that is
