If someone who is good at gardening can be said to have "green fingers" I decree that someone who is
bad at crafts should be described as "red fingered". From all the blood that pin-pricked fingers cause, of course! Sadly, I'm one of those "red fingered" types. I wouldn't know one end of a needle from t'other even if it came up and stabbed me. It came as some surprise then, when on seeing this Wallis coat I started a fantasy knitting circle in my head. This coat would be my first project! But perhaps I was just craving the cosiness of tea, biscuits and a crocheted tea-cosy now the weather has turned chillier.
