Yahoo... I got my parcel from Amazon with The Happy Hooker and One Skein, now I can have a look and see what to knit my One Skein Wonder Pal to be sent off in August. Looking at the Happy Hooker and I am really excited to have a book that shows you clearly how to do things and with some pretty funky things to crochet.

My Sunrise Circle Jacket is coming along nicely, I am getting through the right front increases and hope to have that done by end of this weekend. Then onto the back next week.

My next project should be my gift for the One Skein exchange, then I have an order for 2 scarfs, 1 gloves and 1 fingerless gloves for a woman to send to her granddaughter in England for Christmas, so I will get them out of the way. Then it is open slather on what I will knit next, I have so much yarn still to get through and so many books with lovely things in them. I think I will get onto some more socks, and then maybe the lace knitting, which I would love to do my Mum some lace knitting for Christmas. I think I will be all done for knitting for others until I finish my stash reduction and get it down to nearly nothing. I also will probably do another sunrise circle jacket for girl at work, we swap pressies at Christmas, so the deal maybe she buys the yarn and I will knit it for her gift, that is if she still wants that jacket when she sees mine finished.

Nice cold wet winters day again, we got woken up at 4.30am this morning with #2 son car alarm, remember he is house sitting down the road, we had to ring him to come and turn it off, we then found out we had all the keys at our place, but the car battery had gone flat, but the alarm was still going, and the remotes for the alarm didn't work, so he had to get out of bed and come up in the cold wind and rain and turn it on silence, so it was still going but no-one could hear it. I am sure I will fall asleep at work today, not good being woken at that hour.
