We're back on the air!

The chap from the internet service provider was here this morning and we're back on the air! Hooray!
I was feeling terribly lost without the WWW!
Time now to catch up on some blog reading!
But firstly, I can't blog without a picture!
Here is how my crochet blanket is looking.
If you remember the yarn I'm using is all reclaimed from the Sally Army op shop. I love that as I unravel the balls the yarn is all crinkly and wrinkly from having been knitted or crochet previously.  A friend had a dig about in her stash and gave me some leftovers she found in lovely naturally coloured wool yarns too.
I believe I have enough now to get this one finished.
By the time I do that our container should be here!
It's due into Christchurch in two weeks time, then hopefully we will take delivery very soon after that.
I have enjoyed my crochet project and will need another to keep me going through the winter evenings, but oh boy! I miss my sewing machines. I have a whole new play room with nothing in it! I'm itching to sort out and arrange things in there!
I guess I'll do some sewing too!
LOL

Here's hoping your container arrives and is 'disinterred' speedily. Love the blanket!
