I've never owned a copy of a Jane Brocket book. Must remedy that, although I heard her first one was out of print.

It's a reading book as much as a knitting pattern book. Several things in there that I want to make.

Just had tears from Islay when I collected her and the others from school. We'd all forgotten it is the 1st this morning so she came running out of school asking about her advent calendar - and was not impressed that it doesn't have cholcolate. Oh well, telling her the chocolate in them is yucky didn't help either!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05974388807761344551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171472706505057697.post-75898109361951628972011-12-01T16:21:52.419+00:002011-12-01T16:21:52.419+00:00I made the rock buns on Tuesday for my craft ladie...I made the rock buns on Tuesday for my craft ladies - they are so delicious and nutmeggy.
