A. A buck an ear.

Q. How many letters are there in the pirate alphabet?
A. Two - arrrrrrr and ayyyyyyye!

I now return you to your normal blog-reading......

It's been a long eighteen years

Lixie (and any other cricketphobes) - don't read this.........

Blowing my own trumpet

Toot toot.....

It's out!! The October issue of Knitting magazine!

And on pp24-25, we have.....

My beanie!!

It was originally called Blissful, because it's made with Debbie Bliss yarn. However, I found out that Debbie Bliss herself was using this name for a sweater in an upcoming Interweave Knits, so it got renamed.

I keep squeaking and bouncing :)

And in the next issue - my wrap!
