I joined a while back but forgot to post an introductory post. Oops.

I’m desperate to be able to start this Saturday but at the moment it’s looking unlikely. I’m in the middle of moving house, and finishing off training to be a teacher. The advance planning I did has got no further…. this lovely yarn…
