Too carried away by knits and knots... forgot about GCSE's. <br />I do hope the Results were as expected and hoped for? <br />Our lad has done very well. He had an A* for maths and A for biology from last year's early entries; he has added seven more A*, three more A's and a C (Art, done for "fun"!)... plus A^ (distinction) for his Further Maths GCSE. We're pretty proud of him.

And a good old "Granny" blanket - they are still the best! <br />I love that The Tall One was noticing what you've been doing and even had some thoughts about it. <br />Perhaps he would like you to "knit-let" a cosy throw for the end of his bed - to keep his toes warm on chilly nights (and save him a bit on his heating costs)... maybe you should ask him? But, I have a feeling he would prefer less "Cath" colours, don't you?<br />I'm in the middle of a "Corner to Corner" baby blanket. Being me, I had to add extra complexity. Because it goes from one corner, across the diagonal, adding a border of a contrasting colour makes it much more complicated. I have five separate balls of wool on the go at once - three in the main colour (edge, middle, other edge) and two in the contrast colour (one each side of the border); plenty of challenge to keep each one running up the edge of its section and to keep the stitches in the correct place! It will be fab when it's finished though - a baby blanket for a friend. <br />Enjoy your "knit-let"-ing Sian!
