Book Swap

A big thank you to Carla for the lovely parcel she sent me for the book swap I signed up for. (The deal was that you should find a pre-1960 book with a knitting reference, make a bookmark – knit or embroidered – put it in the book and send it off.)

Lookee what I got:

If I was a more competent photographer I’d have not put the skein the wrong way up, but hey, you can all read upside down, right? Yup, it’s my very own skein of Socks that Rock! And isn’t that bookmark just the cutest? And it all arrived on the day I’d been moaning to John that I’d run out of things to read – perfect timing. A big, big thank you to Carla!

what a lovely parcel. Jacob’s Room is one of my favourite books (my first boyfriend bought me a copy for Xmas in 1978!). ASnd you’ve reminded me that I need to make a bookmark…
