    I'm using up all the bits of wool I've got lying around to make throws. Found quite a bit of red wool, not enough to knit me a jumper. I have decided to knit some cushion covers to go with the seaside theme for my sitting room.

    love to see a photo of your living room please??? :j

    Thanks for the heads up, I'm off to hide where I can't see or hear a TV otherwise the voices will start luring me to buy craft kits that I will never finish or even start.... :o
    I can cook and sew, make flowers grow.
