    moo that is beautiful.

    I know I say it a lot but you have a fine pair of hands on you. :)
    Well done on your sorting out and I am sure it will be brilliant to get everything into the shed. Your totals look great too. Just keep your ebay going and you will have that total sliced in no time at all. Did you list anything over the weekend. I didn't ... was too busy with other things going on so didn't beat myself up about it. 9 items finished yesterday and none sold....same again today and a good few bids and lots of watchers. How did you get on?

    That is a lovely jumper. I must really get on with doing some stuff for ME to wear rather than continueing with the baby hats.
    I want a job that is less than an hour driving away from my house! Are you listening universe?

    Still whizzing round in a whirlwind of domestic drudgery with minimal progress. OH helped by doing the ironing :)

    Have a week to go before my next knitalong starts. Made the mistake of looking at a Ravelry destash and ordering a teeny bit of yarn. Miniscule really. Pathetically small in fact. A mere 400g of cobweb lace which equates to smothing in the region of 5 miles of yarn. Hoping that will keep me busy for quite some time.

    Meanwhile cast on for a jumper for moi using more leftovers. Knitting both arms and the body simultaneously to make sure I have enough of the right colours in the right places. Means I have 2x 7" sleeve stumps, 9" of body and the start of a pocket and some mad idea of having it finished by Monday. Its going quickly but not that quickly.

    My garden resembles a scale replica of The Somme post battle. Trenching from the house to the farthest flung corner of the garden in order to supply OHs new home with power. The hound from hell is hindering progress somewhat by randomly digging craters and back filling the bits I've dug. Looks like we'll have to take out a 60' tree rather than undermine it and theres the small matter of a rotten landie chassis right where I want to dig. Much garden rearranging is in order.

    That just all too awful to contemplate :( Especially with the weather at the moment. Hope its not too arduous a task
