I then took a little trip to the nearby town where I browsed the charity shops and found a few good books- mainly about travel.........
as you can tell, I am still very much in Japanese mind set!
both of these countries are on my trip list.....
Then , I came cross this ittle gem in the Oxfam book shop:
Dating from the 40s or 50s, sadly I cant find a date inside, it is full of wonderful patterns which I may never make!
I love the idea of the cardigan for older woman now that I am one! but not at all sure about the Dutch Cap??????I had no idea you could knit a contraceptive!!!!
Well, thrilled with my purchases, I can feel a lot of reading coming on!
In June I have an invitation to a friends art Show- here is the flyer, she is a wonderful lady, very inspiring! Anyone is welcome!
And finally, my latest handpieced project is underway and looking good_
Have a great weekend folks!

Oh Heather, I have just nearly choked over my breakfast cuppa! LOVE that Cardigan for an Older Woman - bring it on! And knit your own Dutch Cap! The baby layette would be your next project, wouldn't it! How innocent people in general were in those days.
