Wobbling Jul 2017 12:59pm, 30 Jul 2017 5,277 posts	Quote Pin Wobbling I have a sock kit and an elephant kit. I've shyed away from both making socks and amigurumi so it's lovely to have beginners' kits for both. And I got a ball of drops 4ply that I need to finish mum's birthday present. From Fibre East to Dunelm to buy fabric. I need to have another crack at cushion covers and playing around with my sewing machine.
