I spent ages looking through the catalogue this afternoon, didn't get a thing done!

I would much rather spend my thin-on-the-ground spare cash on Sirdar and Patons patterns and booklets this year rather than the 'same old same old' that the designers keep putting out year after year Sad

Got to keep my hand in Laughing

Debs I think I might send off for one of the Readicut catalogues - they seem to be free. I love looking through things like that - much nicer than on a computer screen.

And I agree - seems Sirdar/Sublime have the best designers these days Wink

(and yes, I am still thinking about it, hmmm Laughing

resistance is almost futile, you really are very good at this enabling lark!)

But now then, the Readicut website says that Yo Yo IS aran .... Rolling Eyes

Well if you have a thick aran it would do Cool

The Yoyo isn't really thick in itself it's the boucle bits that fill it out.
