The evening before you go back to school...

it is that time of the year...a week off work and back to work tomorrow, so tonight is that evening of not wanting to go to bed..the longer I can stop up, the later I will have to go back to work.....

Anyway, whilst I could whine about this for pages and pages, I will move onto yarny things....knittingozfan went to Norway for work for a few days, and managed to find a yarn shop and brought back a few goodies....some sock yarn, which I will start on tonight....hhmmmm which pattern to do?? I may have to spend a little time on Ravelry to find out what I fancy knitting, and no I don't have to account for very fat ankles, as my ankles really aren't as fat as they photographed yesterday - really, they are not...
She got me 2 balls of this:

I love the colours...


She also got me some of this stuff - crappy piccie I'm afraid - it is milk yarn...made from milk!! yes, milk!! Odd! It is so soft. I am really not sure what to do with it, but it is perhaps talking to me to become an edging. Have I told you how soft it is?? Thank you...the norwegian chocolate was very tasty too...when are you going back ;-)



Also, here is a current photo of DD, she went to her friends mums 40th birthday party last night, looking very "Audrey" in her LBD, but as I managed to take such a bad photo of her in it, I am only allowed to post this one...note the lack of glasses, she now has contacts.

Whilst knittingozfan and I were having our stitch n bitch, DD and DH went to the local Rugby Club bonfire night as it is November the 5th soon. We enjoyed the fireworks from the window in the dining room, in the warmth, with tea and yarn - so much more civilised.

Interesting yarns! You'll have to tell us how that milk one knits up!
