I am in hat production mode but chuffed with this. The wool was a merino/linen mix and feels amazing. Lucky wee sister getting this as a pressie!

Eating lunch in a very nice cafe in Bath when an exceptionally entitled woman started shouting for soup. When my mum asked her to be quiet, she was told to "shut up, bitch". I reserve the right to be the only one to tell my mother that. Sadly, had a American accent.
