Having said the other day that I was going to make it....

All very simple stuff, Callistemon, honestly. After too many UFOs I’m all too aware of my limitations.

You're very talented Witzend

Septimia my old needles from DM and DMIL are in a tall round box which contained a bottle of whisky.

Sod’s Law, @Septimia - there so often isn’t the size you want. I recently had to buy some tiddly 2.25 mm. That was when John Lewis was (just) still open and I thought I might use up some of the stash by making ‘cakes’ (cupcakes and Swiss rolls!) for little Gdcs’ play shop.

(The ‘chocolate’ Swiss roll aroused a real yen for one, but so far I haven’t succumbed.). ?

I could do with one of those!

My knitting needles are in a drawer but my mum's and half my MiL's (SiL insisted we share them) are in an old music case, just jumbled together and I have to rummage when I want some. More often than not there are multiples of the same size but none of the size I want.
