Just finished another pair of socks. These are for my dad. By the way how did the final fondant fancy cake turn out?

Of course! Here you go - https://www.winwickmum.co.uk/sockalong I was absolutely not a knitter before I did my first pair - I’d dabbled in the basics when I was little but this was great to follow and it’s so satisfying!

Oh no... I'm going to have to follow that link and have yet another distraction from my TDL 😁

Socks are a very, very good distraction. My class have loved them too, spotting mine has sparked all sorts of conversations and they now know the difference between crochet and knitting - I think that’s a very important piece of learning!

I agree!   It’s a great shame that someone back in the mists of time didn’t know the difference between ‘tapestry’ and ‘embroidery’ 🤭😕🙄😁

I highly recommend taking a look at the Perry’s woodcraft site BUT be warned it’s slightly addictive! I’m currently painting the advent set for that festive time we are not allowed to mention yet!

I looked! Oh my goodness it’s amazing - not sure my painting skills are up to it but I want most of the site!

Here’s today’s delivery ready for painting!  The objects in the bag are nativity figures.  I’ve also got the August Perrybox waiting to be painted and my advent calendar objects! Can we have another six weeks holiday please!

Please post a photo when you’re done - I’m particularly tempted by the nativity set.

Sorry about that! Don’t look at the sticker house then! I am so tempted by a vinyl to go on top of our low level storage but am resisting the temptation until we get the fundraising going again!

I did look 🙈 they must be affiliated to Ikea, great stickers for tubs and tops 👍
