I keep my blog as a personal record of what I'm up to, which might be seen as working towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life"

I'm certainly not there yet.  There is quite some way to go!

I know, I know....

What did I say? Enough yarn already? Quite, but I didn't say anything about needles...

Whilst somewhere-or-other last week, I bought a copy of Cat Bordhi's Magical knitting book. Only realised too late that it requires exceptionally long needles - 60" recommended. Everywhere I've asked, I've drawn a blank, and I thought that I would be mail-ordering from home. Still, walking past Newbury Yarns today, I thought it worth asking. Bingo. Bought two 60" Addis, a 3.5mm and an 8mm. Oh, and a skein of Mountain Colors Mountain Goat yarn in "meadow" decided that it needed a good home, too.

Homeward bound this time tomorrow. Perhaps it's just as well!
