That's better
Lovely new sock yarn, soft and such gorgeous colours. Now I have it I don't feel that I have to start the next pair straight away but I had to go and buy it!Thank you for all the sock love, I'm delighted with them.
A Wedding Shadow Box order that I made this week when I bribed the children to leave me in peace for an hour, they got to watch the terrible Power Rangers and I got to fiddle with glue and feathers. Everyone was happy!
We're off to Devon for a week tomorrow so keep your fingers crossed for some sunshine. I can't seem to shake the sore throat and now have a stinky cold too, I'd really like a week sitting by the sea with a good book or six, no interruptions, nobody to cook for and a size 10 bikini body! In the absence of all that we'll have a super time in Devon I'm sure.
I hope the fresh Devon air does you the power of good and that you get chance to relax! Your sock yarns are lovely - nice bit of holiday knitting?
Have a lovely time :)

Sorry I've reserved the size 10 bikini bod so you'll have to fight me for it!
Love the shadow box, I'm sure the recipients will be thrilled to bits with it, it's a lovely idea.
Have a lovely holiday, enjoy a cream tea for me!

I hope you are having a wonderful time in Devon, but I think the cream teas might put a bit of a downer on the size ten bikini body! I'm in love with sock knitting. I've just finished my first Lana Grossa pair and am on cashmere bedsocks now - you have to knit with cashmere it is heaven on two needles!

Lovely looking yarn :) People who can knit socks are so amazing, it seems like a black art to me!!

Also that you're feeling much better too...

have a great time in Devon and look forward to seeing your next pair of socks - I can knit, but have never tried knitting socks - what pattern did you use? - Natalie x
