C/- a swap with Charity via Good Yarn Karma
And the Uber cool book – marking the end of the Birthday gifts from the girls – Fanks Girls. (Ailsa, SHaron, Donna and Jussi). LOVE this book.

Look at my bedside table

Some presents, some purchases.

Claps for you, clever clogs! Looks great and just in time for foul weather! Weather so yuck-o that it is perfect to sit inside and knit socks and/or colourful jacket, and/or read (all those books! I have books on my bedside table that I put there when I moved in to my house – in 1999!!)

I am sure your Clapotis will be well worn in this cold weather, and especially all the rain you guys have been having up there. The Cara yarn is great to use, and I am knitting a striped cardigan for my daughter in it from Special Family Knits. By the way Donni, if you would like to join a dishrag comp, pop on over to qwarkus.typepad.com to read the details as they need participants for the aussie team. I am sure it will lots of fun.

Your clap is great! (hehehehehe – taken out of context that sounds bad!)
Your little car is not exactly little, but it is a Ford. No holdens thanks!
Glad to hear you survived the first round of weather, hope the second doesn’t knock you around too much!
