Tour De Fleece Day 11 (12.7.11)

'In The Sky' back on Tour!  I plied the 'Rainbow Scraps' with 'Old Man's Beard' and made 'Scrappy Beard'!  I had 110 winds around my Niddy Noddy and I think that is about 170 metres.  It weighs 89g.  I will plod on and make more.  I think I will knit a swatch and see how it felts, I think it would make a nice bag or felted slippers.  It wouldn't be everyone's 'cup of tea' but I like it!  I am delighted that bowl of foul water turned into something fairly pretty.
Lord only knows what he is playing at!  He thinks he looks cool!  I think much more of that Tom Foolery and I would be sewing trousers!  It's a good job his Mother loves him!
Pink Tie Number 2.  He had another great day working with Reception children, aged 4 and 5.  He was reading 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff' and making paper airplanes.  He seems very happy and is getting quite a little 'Fan Club'.  One little kid made him a one winged paper plane, we are not sure how he managed that!  I am just delighted it is going well.  Tonight he asked me if I could buy a lollipop for every child in the school for his birthday on Friday.  That is probably a tall order!  I think I will be busy baking cookies on Thursday though to be shared in the Staff Room.
