St Mungo's Project completed

I have just got back from Downham Post Office, where I posted our parcel of orange woolly hats for St Mungo's Woolly Hat Day on 26th October. We managed 25 hats in all.

This is a great cause. In addition, St Mungo's are currently auctioning celebrity hats on eBay for the appeal. Already, Neil Tennant (Pet Shop Boys) is at £1,727.00, and Eric Clapton's is at £770.00. They are the two highest ones right now. The auction ends next weekend. All money raised is for the charity.

Pebbles the-cat-next-door and St Mungo's

I've been getting some help (or is it hindrance) this week with my woolly hat knitting. Pebbles isn't our cat. He lives next door, but visits from time to time. One evening this week he settled down right on top of my orange wool. He looks so cute I can't get annoyed with him.










Here he is sporting my child size hat. He was a bit disgruntled, so I had to snap this shot quickly. Can't blame him really.

This is my 2nd hat for Woolly Hat Day, which this year is on 26th October. It came out smaller than my previous one, as I made a mess with the decreases. Hat #3 next.

Getting ready for St Mungo's Woolly Hat Day!!!
