Seven Things Week 30

IN (20)
1 bison jug and bowl set. Yes, another one for $10 at the same op-shop and no, I'm not sharing the secret location. The other one I'm using as my breakfast set - great for porridge. This is a little smaller, I'm thinking for hummus and drizzle oil.
1 manual coffee grinder VINNIES TUGGERANONG
2 cones laceweight NZ wool- divine GIFT
1 skein red 8ply - wooly, squishy goodness GIFT
1 skein black possum/merino blend - my favourite soft new pet (don't tell Peggy) GIFT
1 set shell stitchmarkers - GIFT
4 hats worth yarn - TSS (she's back and she's enabling)
9 balls laceweight mohair

1 toilet roll holder - OP SHOP
1 biscuit tin - OP SHOP
1 weird basket - OP SHOP

This was published 7am, Janet. The books were closed for the week.

So great to meet you again - and I'm impressed at your de-cluttering - mine slightly de-railed by the fact that I wasn't here for 2 weeks and I stopped at both Bendi and ACS and nearly had to leave children behind to get wool into car!

When are you coming to Tassie? I have some op-shops I'd like you to meet.....

Kate said...

Wow! This is awesome. You are so totally back on track.

Now i need to admit to ignorance. Bison???? I'm guessing not a large hairy bovine.

Nice to see you back in fine form with your outs. I'm about to head to the basement to begin to tackle the wasteland of things forgotten and the things that should have never come into the house!
