As you may or may not know it was my birthday on Thursday. I got a super new lens for my camera, which will allow me to take photographs of Rufus, without him hopefully noticing. He has a real problem with cameras these days, unlike his little brother who just loves the camera. In fact I can sneak up on all the family! I plan to go out and try the lens around the lakes and garden tomorrow, weather permitting. I also got a new carrying case and spare battery, all very handy.

Check out my beautiful birthday card from the boys.
And so to my bargain. Rachel and I were in Dunelm this afternoon and she spotted this book. I had been planning to buy it on Amazon the other week, then talked myself out of it. So was pleased to find it here for £5.00 reduced from £19.99.
Imagine my surprise when I got to the checkout to be charged just £1.00 for it!!! I even asked the cashier if she had made a mistake and she said it must be my lucky day.
I see lots of Fair Isle knitting in my future
Happy birthday! You got a great bargain on the book. I have that book, and I love to look at it, but I haven't done any fair isle yet. It's on my "learn to do" list. Happy knitting!
