Hats!

On Friday arrived a wonderful parcel for Pakistan from Otiva on Ravelry:

24 colourful and expertly-knitted little hats, made by her and her mother.  How wonderful!  Thank you so much to both of you!

Another parcel arrived last week – not for Pakistan, but for me.  The Laal Bear held a prize draw to celebrate 100 posts on her blog and I won!  The draw was done by Meg.  I’m sure she was entirely impartial and wasn’t in any way influenced by the little dog biscuit which she may have had here on her last visit…

What a lovely prize!  Some pretty buttons, a useful anti-depression kit, a cute decoration for the Christmas tree and some snuggly soft BFL fibre which I’ll love spinning.  There were also some pretty stitch-markers which I somehow managed to leave out of the photo (& camera now waiting for batteries to recharge), but I’m sure they’ll be visible in another picture before long, marking stitches on something!

The Wood & Wool exhibition went very well.  It was a lovely, friendly event with some great talent on display.  Our stand was next to my friend Rosemary who had brought along some squares for blankets, all made with her hand-spun merino.  I sold all my Seafoam scarves and quite a few flowers.  Jan sold socks, socks & more socks!
