Family neglected on a Saturday,

and three scarves knit by a Sunday.

I've used a combination of Rowan Biggy Print and Cotton Braid, Colinette Point Five, Sirdar Fizz,

and Kerrie's amazingly soft silk yarn.

So if like me, you have the attention span of a baby flea when it comes to knitting, this is highly recommended.

Knitting

Well, the nights are drawing in and I'm thinking of picking up this again,

one day, it's going to be a jumper for Molly. I started it about a year ago,and anticipating my on/off relationship with knitting, I chose the bigger size, luckily.

For those of you without any projects to finish off  (does such a person exist ?), I highly recommend this book.

and birds ( who look like they've just deposited something on someone's head ). There are also more sweaters, hats, blankets, a jacket and stripy socks.
