Hello, I'm late to the party as usual! I've a few things on the go at the moment - a kitted lacy scarf for a present, a pair of cabled socks for my other half that I am avoiding finishing, and a crochet blanket that requires 450 granny squares, of which I've made about 35. I flitter between projects...
I've just found out about a new shop in Cardiff so I'm going there on saturday to have a look and perhaps treat myself to some new bamboo circulars. Will joing the ravelry group soon, I'm smasherly on there.

I'll gladly take the Rowan Tapestry and the Opal yarn if nobody else claims them, Fraggle. It would end up on the peplum of a cardigan - I have almost enough of one dyelot for the body and sleeves, and plan to do a peplum and some stripes using odd balls of other dyelots

I mean, the Tapestry would - the Opal would probably become socks

(All I have definitely to offer at the moment is a load of acrylic 4-ply - 100g balls of pink, white, red, and black - and some pink eyelash yarn and Anchor pink cotton ribbon yarn.)

oh v'rap! glad you can laugh about it
i've been to the lws to get more teddy bear yarn. debbie bliss cashmerino - 1 pink, 1 pale blue. a teddy only needs one ball so still a bargain pressie
also got some cheap king cole chunky wool in a lovely shade of green to make a snood. bought 3 big buttons to go on it. saw some patterns on ravelry last night that i should be able to adapt another bargain pressie
determined to be sensible with christmas this year. with son at uni things are going to be a bit tight.
i think the teddies will be a hit - daughter took one look and fell in love, and she's 17!
right back to knitting...
