I couldn't make head nor tail of it!

But I'm glad you're over the cystitis pbf
It's even worse if you do what I did and start on page two. Talk about confused. So, are knitted christmas trees a cure for cystitis or do they cause it?

Erm, is this the roger irrelevant thread?

I hate to drag everyone away from cystitis and musings on the nature of normality, but rather tragically I've become really interested in the knitted christmas tree. I think one would look really cool, especially if you made a big long cone out of some kind of novelty/ chunky wool, and stuffed it firmly, with perhaps a big star on top. It would look like an ironic postmodern christmas tree! It would be great! But then again I was considering knitting a lampshade earlier, so perhaps I just need a nice cup of tea and an early night...

Slinking away now. Please feel free to resume normal service :wink:

I just had to look at that link :mrgreen: but they are really quite clever and make those bog standard paper lanterns look at lot more interesting!

Don't you think you are getting a little off topic

having put my thumb through two lanterns that would be great - if I were a good enough knit :roll:
The cone idea sounds brilliant :cheers:
I'm currently planning a felt door wreath, because if I dye, spin and knit it all first it'll be April before it's done :oops:

So you want to get a big furry cone and stuff it with a big star (Brad Pitt perhaps?) :iconbiggrin: Erm, :iconbiggrin: can we go back to discussing cystitis please, this is getting kinky.
