(70's?) melamine dishes.

'Nana' jacket (according to my friend) £5
I liked this in the shop but not sure now. For some reason in this pic it looks squat and ginormous. Think it will look OK with jeans though and I'm going to change the button as in my opinion this one looks cheap. When I went to pay, the lady said it was a BOGOF so I scoured the rails for another pleasing item and found this wraparound maxi skirt. Not an entirely sensible purchase as I haven't a bloody thing to go with it!
On the way home we stumbled across Department which was right up my street and we both had a good old rummage which resulted in me parting with £7.50 for this charmante (60's?) French print which I love and is now taking pride of place in my hall.

Now for the big news.... drum roll please, I've finished the baby jumper (which is intended for a poor African child) that I started in March! Before you judge me too harshly, I would just like to point out that this is my inaugaral knit. Yes, there have been a few calamities along the way, I've had to seek assistance from Jan over the road on more than one occasion but it does resemble the illustration on the pattern, now I've removed the cat hair. Knitting experts look away now...
I'm not sure I will start another project just yet as I've still got a long way to go with the crochet. Although I've made an abundance of granny squares they've yet to be crocheted together like this.

Righto, I'm off to finish that pint of cider now, reckon I deserve it.
