Light Relief

So off to the pussy jumble i went , quite quiet this week mainly because it was a Spring Fayre , bit daft really as its just a jumble with added  tombola and raffle , usual all fighting over the clothes , while i picked up a rather nice bit of 60s luggage , a bundle of teaspoons , the mystery of the teaspoon stealer has never been solved in this house . And a few more chalet school books for a friend .  Still flicking through last weeks giant knitting pattern haul , current favourite, furniture for Barbie sized Dolls , might have a go at this . Plus knitted nativity sets , just need a kick up the arse and some motivation at the moment , if nothing else ive discovered that living in an Amazon Warehouse full of furniture and boxes is eating my soul .

Daughters birthday prompted a road trip to an open day at a wool warehouse in Leicester ,  didnt buy anything daughter was quite restrained and her friend as well , very very cheap but i need more wool like a hole in the head , i suppose someone could crochet me an organic coffin when i go ...hint hint

Just been outside and rebuilt the whirly washing line after its death during Storm Gareth , its amazing what can be achieved with the upright from the munchkins old bunk bed and a bit of brute force , will rebuild it properly once the weather is warmer but for now its up and looks odd but with the price of the wretched things, for a proper metal one rather than the alloy ones that dont last a month in the windswept lands it will serve ..lol

  1. My Brother in Law kindly got my linen line post upright again yesterday after Storm Gareth made it lean rather too much. Brute force with angle-iron support and metal circle things and cable ties.
    I saw a sign for another Jumble sale next saturday....better check it out

  6. If I use fat yarn and big needles, can I knit up a sofa for my house? Wonder how much fiberfill I will need...
