Yay, you managed to turn it around this week! I haven't done much in the way of in's or outs lately, living on a hill is good for that. No way am I walking up the hill once I have been to the op shop so no op shop for me!

You are continuing to do well. How does it affect the overall collection? Is there a sense of order coming to your life.

I stopped at the end of summer, and it sure feels good to be released from having to count everything. But despite that, i have had an excellent out week as I have made 3 sets of 50 little gifts to give away. Hopefully there is no way I have brought that much INTO the house!

Ok, you've nearly neutralised the previous two weeks. Another week like this week and you'll be back to zero!

Any pikkies of the socks??

Have knit 1 TTWC Jnr for a friend's little boy and am doing another for another friend's little girl. Nice change from teeny tiny needles and plackets that won't.
