FNSI...

Last night was Friday Night Sew In. One plan was to cut out some hexagons to start another Dilly Bag...
I had a packet of sample Liberty prints that I bought last year from the lovely UK shop, Alice Caroline...
Perfect I thought. And the templates had been put away in the correct spot, so out they came! ( I only use the big Perspex template as this pattern doesn't use the 'papers' method')
But then I remembered that at the Albany Creek Knit and Natter just last Wednesday, I heard that K4BN had already been asked for 1000 mini Christmas stockings by a charity. This was a 'new' charity for us to help, let alone the 6000+ stockings we provided last year, complete with sweets. Hmmm, so maybe I should be thinking about sewing some stockings??? So I printed off the pattern I use for the fabric ones I make...
But you know what? I ended up just knitting for the evening...
A few more rows on the 'blues and black' chevron/ripple throw. Only about 30cm or so till it's long enough. 
Thank you to Wendy for organising FNSI ! Check out the links to other participants here...http://www.sugarlane-designs.com/2016/07/july-signups-for-fnsi.html
