Guess What I Got Today!

Two things.. well a few but the two main things are...
Stitch n Bitch Knitters Handbook from a forum member - it's a great book and there's a few patterns I'll definitely be knitting!
Also I got.. Magic Knickers!! I'm overweight you see, and for some unknown medical reason cannot lose weight... so I have this annoying, flabbly, wobbly spare tyre which stays two paces ahead of me where ever I go, and even dances seperately to me when I dance. Soooooo in my desperation I pursuaded Mum to get me magic knickers and by golly, they really are magic!! I may even wear a summer dress for the first time in my life this summer! I'm definitely tempted to knit a dress now! :D
WIPs coming along slowly by the way. The tank top's about an inch long, and the sleeve of the YoYo jacket is about two inches long!

Hi Vixx

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you!Work..........don't go there.....!

The WIP was just a kiddies hat - 99% of my stuff is done for Operation Christmas Child. I don't have the confidence as yet to do myself a garment as a) i'm still an improving knitter and b)I've lost 5 stone over the last two years, with another 2 still to go, so my shape is constantly changing. I do have the wool, though...!

The mittens are very simple, just in st-st, a friend of mine got me the pattern. Perhaps I will get round to putting some more photo's on - when I work out how to do it!
