Sale time

I love the Sales and this morning, needing a new battery in my watch, went into town for a wander. The first bus to arrive dropped me near the shopping centre and so I walked through on my way to the wool shop. A number of purchases in Gap filled my bag by the time I arrived at one of my favourite little yarn shops - Knit Nottingham, and I bought some of the wool in their sale.

I had already decided what I wanted to purchase from the web site and went for the lot! It will make 2 log cabin blankets ( top and bottom colours) and a new Cowichan jacket ( colours in the middle) Part of the joy of a trip to this particular shop is the owner who is always welcoming and ready to chat. She is one of those remarkable people with a good memory for customers and their projects - makes one feel special and ready to spend! I know that I had intended not to add to the stash but sales are there to be taken advantage of and there is a good few weeks' knitting here - I couldn't help myself.
