What I made, by Sharon

 Last week I predicted that my books and knitting will be the same this week, and they are!  I'm still reading    At the Feet of the Sun by Victoria Goddard .

Saturday we slept for a few hours and then rested and then today we cleaned the house and i put together some earrings for Kris, Katie and Mel. Mel's a relatively new friend that Kris bought into the group, but she wears colourful earrings, so I presume she'll love it. And th...
