November

Made a mini jumper with Rudolph on the front for advent calendar pockets- but you have to be told it is a reindeer. Back plain,, knit tight, front far too loose. Need to address that if making more, perhaps different size needles, Whole thing bloomin' fiddly anyway, thinking about adapting pattern to kit all in one (but top of sleeves are shaped. Sigh.) Had been using Drops Flora wool/alpaca mix for handwarmers, four pairs. Enough left over to use all four shades to make a fifth pair, which will keep because it is so soft and warm. Drops is such an economical buy. These are pair no. 546 - isn't that remarkable? Had another stocktake from the museum today, sales going really well in all areas.
