Where did the week go?

I can't believe where the time is going. It's now December and time is flying by!

The fair in Lancaster yesterday was really good. It also allowed me to catch up with people I haven't seen for such a long time! Wendy, Sally and Diane were just some of the folk...

I'm currently working at a local supermarket too, for some extra Christmas cash. I didn't think I would like it, but I am very surprised - it's a great job, and the team I work with are amazing - so friendly and welcoming, such lovely people. I am really enjoying it and half hope they keep me on...

On the needles right now is a shawl using Noro yarn. There's so much hype about Noro, and how fantastic it's supposed to be. As I'd never knit with it before, I thought I ought to give it a go. To say I was disappointed is an understatement. The yarn colouring is pretty, and it's knitting up well and holding its shape, but compared to my handspun it's rough. It's not the sort of yarn I want to knit with regularly and I think this will be the last time I use it - Knatters Knits handspun from now on....
