Hello from Germany

Just a quick hello to the blog world. I am enjoying some free time and am settling alarmingly well into my new routine of leisure... I predict a nasty waking up when I get back to the UK and have 6 days to write a conference paper, but for now I am enjoying the sunshine and the reading of none-work-related books, and the knitting time. I have even brought my camera so I can take pictures of my progress! First knitting-related update will come tomorrow, when I can present the baby cardigan that I made for my dear friend N, who just had a little baby girl. After that, it's a mix of socks, baby cardigans and blankets for which I have brought yarn with me.

Something else, though, which ocurred to me yesterday - do any of you have any wishes for stuff I could bring from Germany? Sockyarn? Rebecca magazines? Something from the Season Store, which is just round the corner from here? Let me know, because I am here by car, so transporting anything back to the UK isn't an issue. :-)
