a sock for Imbolc, goodies in the mail and a new elemental





In honour of Imbolc I made a new elemental figure in purples for spirit, the inner spark within that makes us all different. The beliefs we have and the path we follow, spirit for me reflects all this.
Hope you like her:)
I have just this noon received a great package from Marianne
Not only yarn for the hospice sock appeal but chocolate, 2 bars:)) Mr Mog will get his share of course(VBG) I'm wondering whether to use one bar to make chocolate pots, yes I think I may then that will make 6 pots, makes the chocolate go much further:)) Thank you Marianne I love the yarn and will enjoy knitting with it. (Oh and Mr Mog says he will get as much pleasure from the chocolate)
I've finished my 1st marmalade sock and I love the colours:) I've also cast on for my February moon sock, perfect colours don't you think? The green of the new growth, pinky/purple for the corocuses, blue for Brigid, gold for the daffodils, white for the snowdrops.

I love the Elemental doll. She is wonderful. I'd love one like that but am not great with the arty stuff.
