OK. Since I was able to figure out how to put my picture on here, I'm going to give this another go. Can someone, anyone, PLEASE, explain to me in very simple english how to get links to other bloggers? I am SOOO computer illiterate.

Did you hear about the cat who swallowed a ball of yarn?

She had mittens.

I have purchased the book, "Knitting from the Top" by Barbara G Walker and I'm almost finished a three quarter length sleeve, V neck, pullover in salmon coloured Baby Silk (80% baby alpaca, 20% silk). It is so soft I can't help stopping knitting to pet my new sweater. I bought too much yarn and will have about 150g left over. Socks? Fingerless gloves? A scarf? Please help me decide.

I spent some money on my addiction today. I bought four "Knitting Pattern-a-Day Calendar 2006" (because some of my designs have been published in it) and the book "Knitting from the Top" by Barbara Walker. I purchased them on line at elann.com so it will be a week or so before I have them in my hot little hands. I'm really looking forward to the book as I hate running out of yarn half way up the last sleeve or finding I could have made it another inch longer.
I'm currently working on a mohair jacket for myself, an Aran sweater for my sweety, DH, a little Aran sweater for my 15 month old grandson, thrummed mittens for my son and slippers for my youngest daughter and her three year old and 7 year old sons.
