Hoped to finish Little Nanook’s blanket last evening but disaster ran out of the Robin Hood green wool I was knitting for the border. Just one short side to go and I was short of wool and also a bit short tempered.

I shall jump into my little Fiat put the top down and head of into the sunshine for the wool shop, keeping my fingers crossed that they still have the colour.

A little tip, I have knitted some secret pockets in the blanket, so Little Nanook can hide his little treasures.

Had a shower and a shave before leaving but know that it doesn’t matter how careful I am, when the sun hits my shapely pins, there will be a row of stubble that I have missed!

Yours exasperatedly

Celia
