I have finally finished the back of Chicago, it seemed to go forever... And guess what... I was short of 6 beads!!! (which I had to thread on to be able to finish the last four rows).
Tomorrow there won't be much knitting if any as I am going to Southampton for a quick trip to John Lewis to raid their wool department. Hope I won't be disappointed... Here on our little island, we rely entirely on the Internet for nice wool and patterns as our LYS are not supplying Rowan, GGH, etc... So we make a big thing of a trip to the Mainland. I hope I will have something to show you when I get back.
I will have to be back in time to pick up the children from school, get them changed and head for Ryde sea front where we intend to watch the 200 years celebrations of the battle of Trafalgar over the Solent. So tomorrow will be a very busy day.
Finally, I have gone through my craft and knitting books and decided it was time to be ruthless... in other words make room, so I can get more. I have created a new "clearance sale" photo album so you can see what I have to offer. All books details can be viewed on the Amazon website unless otherwise stated. I will add a few more later when I get some pictures organised and there will be some wool as well (not much). Feel free to browse and contact me if you are interested.
Right, speak to you after my trip to John Lewis. Do they have shopping trolleys there, I wonder...
Even living on the mainland a trip to John Lewis is a big thing for me too! It's the only place locally where I can get to feel and see so many different yarns all in one location. Hope you're having a good day and managed to find a trolly big enough!

What is John Lewis? I must be missing something good if it involves Rowan. As my kids would cry, "I wana go too!" Let us all know what they have.

Looking forward to seeing the results of your shopping trip! And I actually wish I was there to see your reenactment/celebration. That could be really interesting to watch.

Hope you had a good shopping trip to John Lewis. The re-enactment looked good on the news last night - those fireworks!
