Birthday Post

I got most of what I had planned to do done today which was nice.   I also got to go to Knitworld which wasn't in the plan, but we hadn't planned on going out until George's mozzie bites required a trip to the chemist.
I spent a little more than I'd planned, but look at this:

All for socks, all yummy.

I also got the sewing done on my petticoat, just got to get the waist tie in so it stays up

100% silk jacquard; loverly.

My present from Thomas:

Chiao Goo interchangeable small set, plus a couple of pairs of fixed needles too.

I also got the hat cast on:

beginnings of a hat, hope it fit me!

I also got a book by the author of the Lemony Snicket series from MIL and a photo frame from SIL.   I think the photo frame requires something with colour in it, possibly me wearing something knitted, Thomas was thinking a nice family photo, but the frame is a bit too bouncy for that, the colours are fairly bright.
