Last night Ruby wore her new blue jumper I knitted for the first time, when I saw her this morning she was down the back yard, minus the jumper (I thought if she has ripped it I will kill her - not really), I went down and here it was in a nice pile in her kennel, I don't know how she got it off, but it wasn't harmed at all. Oh well I will try again tonight.
I got some really nice wool yesterday of a girl who works casual here, she sells jewellery and now wool, it is Fiddlesticks Vogue, a really chunky then really thin yarn in blue, mauve and green, I don't have any idea on what to do with it, but I have the urge to phone her and get more balls (I only got 2 balls).

Also I have finished 2 pairs of woollen bedsocks for the Knitting Guilds Charity Knitting for Berrima Jail (womens prison on Southern Highlands), it is a really old jail (over 100 years) and it would be extrememly cold in winter and because of OH&S they aren't allowed electric blankets.

Tomorrow I hope to get to the Wollongong Stitch N Bitch for the first time, I don't know what DH's plans are but I think I will try to make it.
I have now started on a hat in Feathers yarn in the cream, pink and mauve colours for our goddaughters older sister, she asked me if I could knit it for her as she has a scarf in the same colours, her birthday is in June so I will make it for that, I would also like to knit her some gloves with the feathers on the bands and in a cream yarn, I will see how I go. Just trying to finish one thing at a time.
