We have been invited to a Country House weekend next month by friends celebrating a 70th birthday. Very posh. So I went to the most upmarket charity shop in town last week to see if I could find something to wear. I purchased 3 new jumpers - two are lambs wool so need hand washing.
So 3 worn out jumpers had to go. I am very strict as I am trying to reduce storage areas - what is the point of filling up valuable space with clothes you don't wear (out of date, no occasion to use, wrong size, worn out)?
So 3 worn out jumpers joined the worn out fleeces in being prepared to be made into a rag rug!
Now the evenings are dark it is a comfortable activity stitching the plaited "worms" together sitting in front of the log fire. I need about 20 of these - they are about 6 ft long! There is nothing much on TV needing full attention so I will be pleasantly occupied till Christmas.
