Katie Melua and wool

Went to the Nottingham arena last night for a Katie Melua concert – the tickets were part of Dad’s Christmas presents. Had a fabulous time – she’s become much more assured and more of a performer since I last saw her, and I’m now determined to buy her current album (which I was debating before). Then due to RyanAir deciding that they don’t like flying on Tuesdays I’ve got a day off, hanging around the house with Mum. This turned out to be a mistake as a simple trip to Beeston to visit the bank and buy some food turned into a chance to check out the new wool shop. Mum walked out with a selection of speciality wools (to knit scarves for bears, and decorate dolls – sensible reasons – not just ‘cos they’re pretty – honest!), and I’ve bought a pattern book and enough expensive wool to knit myself a cardigan. It’s practical! It’ll be cold in February!
