Knit, knit, knit

The weather is a lot cooler today than the stinking hot day yesterday, so I took advantage of this and went to gather some supplies to start knitting again!! (No button action yet... Awaiting inspiration).

My best friend who I went to pre-school with 30 years ago is up here at the moment. She is about to embark on 12 months of working in Saudi Arabia, and came up to spend time with us and say au revoir. Anyway, when we get together, we knit and eat and talk and just hang out. It's a very special relationship, and she is a wonderful friend and incredible woman. I never know just how to tell her how special she is.

So with the desire to knit, we went and spent Too Much Money on Jo Sharpe wool, and came home to cast on. Lovely way to spend some time!

She discovered by accident that plastic knitting needles won't show up on the xray at the airport, so managed to get by with knitting in her hand luggage! Oops! I've always thought this was a silly rule, but it would be awful to have all that Hard Work confiscated!!!

Bon Voyage JR, I will miss you SO MUCH. xoxox
