I am really enjoying the cold weather being snuggly inside and knitting away. I have been knitting on Paul's sweater at night and getting really excited about it as I had ordered more yarn - then today I received a letter from Bendigo Woollen Mills saying that they had already run out of stock in the pewter colorway of the Moorland yarn. I ordered mine last week to finish off the sweater which was 5 balls so I am hoping that it will be the same dyelot. It must be very popular.
After that little notification I then went onto my internet banking and discovered that somebody had been using my debit card number to make little transactions for themselves. Thankfully I didnt have much money in the account otherwise they would have taken more than $29 so tomorrow will be spent speaking to the fraud squad. I am really annoyed though as they stopped my card last month because they thought someone was trying to use it and then it cleared and it was okay, which clearly it wasnt. This time I decided that no - I cut up my card and am now awaiting another new one. I do hope they catch the little *!#@* who has been using my card to buy a video game (1 transaction) and whatever else they thought they could have for free. I wont say on here how annoyed I am with people who think they can just take money from other people for no reason at all. It makes my skin crawl actually. Oh and to top off this week I have been dealing with Isabelle having head lice! Tomorrow we are both getting our hair cuts so we should feel better. Thankfully we havent found anymore in the last 2 days! Okay I have gotten it out of my system, back to knitting to calm down, ...... deep breaths!!

I hope the gorgeous cardigans and the haircut will sooth you. How awful to have your card used like that, it's just horrid.
Head lice are a act of life now. Twenty years ago the school nurse came once a fortnight and checked all the children but it was 'too expensive' and they department stopped doing it, Of course now it is a huge problem, and costs a fortune to deal with.
I like the button bands much better than zips!!
I have been looking for a baby sweater pattern. I really like ths one and I would knit it with the button bands as well. No zippers for me!
Oh what a pain re the card fraudster and the nits. But on the bright side the cardi's are lovely and I really like the subtle stripes on the first one, yes, I noticed them better when I clicked the image.

Absolutely adorable! There will be two very thrilled little girls :)
Sorry to hear about the theft. It is very disheartening to think how very prevalent this behavior is.
Aren't those #@!! horrible. It happened to hubby too, twice. rrrrr
As for the lice, thank goodness I have well and truly finished with that. So annoying cause you know you are doing the right thing, its others!!
Love your little projects, so sweet
Eeewy! What a week! May your weekend be pleasant and calm!
Green/blue stripes quite visible after clicking on the pic!
Sorry to hear about card number stealing and banking, even though my simple life became even simpler after I started using net banking!
