I know it has been pretty quiet around here recently - sorry about that.  But it doesn't mean I haven't been doing anything - life has been a little hectic.   But I have been doing a bit of knitting too, and for the first time in ages I have bought somebody else's yarn.

This glorious silky goodness is Manos del Uruguay Silky in the colour Citric Baltic (corrected once I checked the label!).  It is meant to be a Christmas present, so I'm saying no more, but hopefully somebody out there will see this colour and say "Ooooh I hope that's for me".
