I also took a drive out to Tantallon to go to the Basket of Yarn and check it out. I saw on the website that she is doing a Fair Isle class which I have been waiting to learn so I signed up. I have already done my homework. It's a nice little shop and she has a couple things that I have not seen in town, like a good selection of Briggs and Little, laceweight Malabrigo (beautiful!!) and some hand dyed from Chile that I forget the name of. There was also a cat sleeping in a basket.
I finished and photographed my Colinette Jitterbug socks. I have heard that this yarn bleeds very bad when washed. I have not washed or worn them yet, so we shall see how they hold up.
Just as I am writing this my smoke detector goes off because I burnt the pizza I had in the oven. Maybe I should be taking a cooking class too.

Dave doesn't have to go to sea often, but when he does I find myseslf cleaning a lot. He is leaving for the month on the 7th. I am already looking for projects to occupy my time.
