...purchased with credit card points, otherwise it would be very unlikely to be seen in my kitchen!!
And on the crafting-front, I was well and truely drawn into the 40% off at Spotlight on the weekend. I bought myself some lovely wool since I've been enjoying some knitting over the last month or so. I found this wonderful 100% wool in a rainbow palette but I'm not sure what to make with it - something for Matilda, but what? Any suggestions would be gratefully received. I'm thinking maybe a Swing Thing or Tikki's Rainbow Dress.
I also had to tidy up my knitting drawer in order to fit in the new yarn and finished this vest just in time to fit Matilda. I knitted it using a free Guardian Angel knitting pattern from several years ago. I love the freebie patterns available through this Guardian Pharmacy campaign but have never found enough time to knit anything to donate.

oh oh oh I NEVER thought of that... saving the credit card points for one of these - GOOD THINKING Miss Angie!!! Right... better see how many points we have and how may I need!
KNitting front. I am slow. DOing Gus socks. Small and simple. CAN You believe I was at SPotlight Sunday. Was so excited about the sale went home to look at all my pattern, how many balls I need etc. Went back Monday with my list and ARGH sale finished. Did not check dates. Ask sweetly with battering eyes if they let me but no... pout
Oh Ange, I have a serious dose of Kitchen Aid Envy!!!
Love the look of the vest, very cute!
Wow, Ange! You lucky duck - enjoy that little beauty. I am contemplating buying one from the US on eBay as they're so much cheaper there but have to work out the shipping aspect. J x
Methinks you may have to spend a LOT of money on your credit card to get that beauty. Totally jealous....Amanda xox
Woot! PERFECT use of points!!!
And I am still chuckling here over your revelations that you had stressful calculus dreams... I actually found that ALL calculus problems were unsolvable and lived in a permanent state of anxiety during maths. x
I love Tilda's vest and I'm tempted to knit a couple for the little ones in this house. Anything without sleeves has got to be quicker than a cardi right?
And as for the new kitchen aid... All I can say is... Let the baking begin!
ps Love swing thing :)
