A Final Fling...

Yesterday I managed to squeeze in some last minute pre-Christmas shopping - the kind I really enjoy!

This is what I came home with...
Some vintage saris, crochet work and gloves - just so ready to be remade or re-purposed.
And a Marshall Cavendish "How-To" book from the 70's

So many ideas! And hopefully enough time to try some of them out!

That really had me smiling. The last fling is the one that leaves me feeling vulnerable and unsure - is there ever a LAST when I do shopping?

I bought myself a 2nd hand book yesterday - that's as close as I can come to your sterling efforts!

I have that book! It's really good - I always end up going back to it, even if only to compare their instructions with others'. It has a great pattern for lacy knitted stockings.... I made about 3 pairs one year when I was supposed to be studying for exams.
