We have returned to 'hot and sticky' weather. Do not want, kthnx.
Spent lunchtime having coffee/chatting with Tom, and helping him hunt for a dress waistcoat and a red cashmere jumper. Mocked him mercilessly for his idiocy in said hunt, and ended up getting 'commissioned' to knit a cashmere scarf for Christmas - he pays for the wool, I just put in the work. Which, y'know, YAY for working with yummy fibres. I have to locate cashmere in 'Cambridge blue' which is significantly harder than just finding cashmere, but.
Also spending the next forty-eight/fifty-six hours knitting like a demon. Been commissioned by Josie to knit bootees and a sweater for a baby shower gift she needs - it's cheaper to pay for the wool and have me knit it than it is to locate proper booties and pay out for them. Have got a really pretty petrol-blue wool that is synthetic and thus machine-washable, and will enjoy watching Bones/knitting.
Also on agenda- dance lesson tomorrow at three, and on Monday I have a contact lenses appointment, which is sorely needed before leaving for uni.
