Glove giveaway!

I'd like to give these gloves away to the first person who leaves a comment on the blog. They are made from Rowan Kidsilk Aura (Mohair and silk) and feel really soft! The pattern is the old faithful Louisa Harding's gardening mitts.

So please feel free to write anything and I'll pop these in the post to you.

Nearly finished the Parisienne shawl! Quite exciting, just have one more round to go and then the edging. Have borrowed 2 Debbie Bliss books from the library, 'Home' has the 'jellybean' cushions pattern beloved by Jane Brocket of the Yarnstorm blog and the other has some baby and tiddler knits. This book has taken on much more significance since I had some fantastic news sprung on me the other night!

Liv casually passed me a picture when I was visiting on Tuesday, 'Here, have a look at this'. It looked suspiciously like a scan picture from the picture of the stork on the front! and yes, she's 4 months pregnant and actually has quite a bump although I hadn't noticed..doh! I'm so happy for her and Trev as they have been trying for a while. She said it's been so difficult keeping it a secret, especially at Christmas when she was feeling very sick. So, a July baby, plenty of time for knitting something then!
