I'm keeping up with spinning and knitting the Beatrice wool for the cushion.  It's very frustrating because knitting gives me RSI, it doesn't seem to matter how little or much I do, my wrists ache.  I'm sure that there's loads of knitters with the same problem and I'd love to hear any suggestions.  I know that it is a pain to leave a comment (nigh on impossible) on this site because people have told me.  So I may post something on Ravelry and see what is suggested.

Another problem with this blogware is that I used to be able to cut and paste pictures from other sites and since the problems with Fasthosts, that facility seems to have gone.  So I will just post this for you to have a look at.  www.nickythomson.co.uk  It's a beautiful site full of knitted textiles, clothing, flowers, scarves.  Her designs are ultra feminine, exude class but are quirky too.  I love them.
