I was lucky enough to have some yarn amongst my Xmas presents this year<\/p>\n

Two skeins of sock yarn from my lovely friend Helen.<\/p>\n

She also gave me some beautiful stitch markers<\/p>\n

I’ve deployed one already<\/p>\n

The picture isn’t as clear as I’d like, taken with a daylight bulb as it’s so dark these days, but this is last week’s project still in progress. It’s an Owl Hat by Ruthie Nussbaum<\/a>, this time for me. I made three of these this year all in different yarn for friends. I haven’t decided yet if I’m going to give the owls button eyes.<\/p>\n

After Xmas of course comes the sales. Normally I hate going to town for the sales as it’s so busy. But I waited and was rewarded by being able to find these Glitter Birds in Paperchase for half price. So pleased that I didn’t give in and buy some before Xmas.<\/p>\n

Of course I\u00c2\u00a0particularly like the\u00c2\u00a0turquoise one…<\/p>\n

I also picked up two of these lovely cups and saucers today. They’re slightly more vivid in real life.<\/p>\n
