sallykate Dec 2016 10:51am, 8 Dec 2016 4,624 posts	0 sallykate I finished daughter's fingerless gloves and am now looking at my stash wondering what's next. Maybe a few Christmas things or some of these jose-crochet.blogspot.co.uk to use as small gifts - could put some lavender inside. I should bite the bullet and try knitting a hat but it all feels a bit daunting compared to crochet.

jabberknitmas Dec 2016 1:40pm, 8 Dec 2016 1,319 posts	0 jabberknitmas I don't like the smell of lavender either, m4p, and detest the recent vogue in some restaurants for desserts and ice creams flavoured with it. No, no, no, just no - old lady's knicker drawer, that's what it smells of.
