Good Buys (not Goodbyes!)

Hurrah for second-hand shops and chazzers!

I was only going to post a pic of my completed cardi, but ...
... here is the cardi I knitted on Saturday evening and finished on Sunday morning.  The Indie wool was soooo big and fluffy it took no time at all, and it's also soooo warm.
Cynthia is modelling my charity shop £3 Per Una jersey dress.  She will be naked tomorrow as I'm wearing it with slouchy black boots for work.
This pretty bone china set cost all of £2, with the two white tea plates thrown in.


A fiver well-spent, I say!

Keep warm, m'dears xxx
