Joan,

Ellen has inexplicably taken up knitting (my 12 year old - "Far too cool for anything" daughter). Do you want to give her some tips??

She's about 3 feet into her first scarf... my mum's been helping her. I wouldn't even know one end of a knitting... stick thingy from another

OK, Plaid it is :!: Something like this :?:

Quite difficult to knit, but nothing's impossible.

Hi Nina

Good for Ellen :!: It's a useful skill to acquire, so tell her to keep at it. I will expect a fashion show next time I see her

Hello Rich. I don't think we've met before, but you can certainly have a monochrome one. It's a bit easier to knit than Del's plaid anyway :roll: Not sure what colour, but how about midnight blue :?:
