Only 1 - 2 left

Sky Blue linen and cotton poncho cape Ltd Edition 2 left in this shade

I'm sure if I'll be able to pick up this yarn again for a while, so for the moment it looks like I'm down to the last 1 or 2, but it's more likely to be the last one, as I think I'll keep enough yarn back to make one up for myself.

My day at Greenwich




Glass nail files, I don't really pay any attention to my nails and haven't owned a nail files since I was in my twenties, but if I was the kind of women who did file her nails I would certainly treat myself to one of these.


These gel burners were really special, and if I had a garden one of these would have found it's way home with me, They're hollow inside, with a little stainless steel cup which rests in the hole at the top, when filled with gel oil, it burns smoke and odourless free. when you're all finished, you just pop the lid on and out goes the flame, these would make wonderful presents, and so affordable, and what you can't tell from these images is the size, some of them are really quite large.

These pot notch hanging wood 'things' were fun, perfect again for someone with a garden who enjoys hanging baskets. and so simple, the pots just notch into the curve on the wood frame, and then just hang. Simple. http://potnotch.co.uk/index.html

I treated myself to a simple silver ring, which the maker made up for me whilst I wondered around the market.
I'll post images of this later.

working on some summer beanies



I'm working on some summer hats, the yarns I've chosen are a mix of 100% Bamboo and 100% Cotton. So far it's coming along good, but my needles are taking the rest of today off , as I'm about to step on out and go browsing around Greenwich market.
My first day off this year. :)
