“Sensational Knitted Socks” by Charlene Schurch and Room on the Broom and 4 Terry Pratchett books: Carpe Jugulum, the Discworld Companion, Johnny and the Bomb and Johnny and the Dead. The latter 4 from one of the stalls on the village market which is a real draw to me and fatal reallly as I already have books in the attic and piled on sides as I currently only have two (full) bookcases in the living room. I neeeeeeeeed more bookcases, but the car’s packing up and dh doesn’t think it’ll make it to Ikea and back to get the cupboards I want.

I’ve taken the plunge and started making a Waldorf doll on the sewing machine. I’m rather useless when it comes to using a machine to sew, but I am perservering. The doll probably won’t win too many beauty contests, but I’ll be pleased and I’m sure Nin will love him/her (we need to decide on a gender). The knitte d pram blanket is growing slowly - it’s not something I feel especially passionate about, but will use up some cheap acrylicy wool I have knocking about and be a useful thing to have when the weather gets colder and a covering layer is needed (over a plumper crocheted wool blanket I have).

The SS came out on a fact-finding mission (to decide whether they will do an assessment on R.’s needs) and it’s been hot so we made smoothies :0)
