Beret and other decorative hats:

Plain Black, made from standard beret fabric- boiled wool?



Very posh feathered ladies' vintage hat, a proper millinery job.



Hand knit (by yours truly) very slouchy hat... This was my first "Let's get back into knitting!" project from about a year ago. It was meant to be a rectangle but due to tension change it just decreased so i stitched up the sides and turned it into a hat. It's not made very well but it's quite fun.



Winter hats, all with earflaps:







That last one is made of lamb's wool and is super soft.

I don't know! I'm quite open to anything really. I'm thinking about investigating into leopard print since I've decided it no longer looks Kat Slater style trashy. Do you have anything that you want to throw out in leopard print?

I thought you looked like a leopard print girl. I was thinking about shirts. I'm a size 8/10 but i like baggy clothes too, so really size 8 upwards

Leopard print is gorgeous, my mum always makes fun of me for having so much of it though!

hmmmm I've got two ideas, so I'll have a play. I'm just finishing a leopard print corset at the mo (which I might post). large leopard print or small?
I may possibly be in your neck o'the woods in a couple of weeks, on the way back from wales.

Um, I'm not really sure about large or small! Not too large. I'd want the spots to be any bigger than about an inch in diameter.

We can meet and swap knickers, hehe

I bought a cheap pair of runner type fake converse shoes and sewed on some cute beads on the side. I had tried on a few sizes, but still I picked up the wrong pair and only realised when I wore them to work! They are too small for me Happy
So they are up for swap. They are almost perfect, I wore them twice, just to make sure.
They are size 37 european, 4 UK, 6 US and 4 1/2 Australia.

This is a BRILLIANT idea, my mums been going on at me for ages about having too much stuff, and I can't be arsed with the arduous process of listing on ebay anymore.

I'm off to have a rumage and see what i can find. I'm a shoe size 5.5/6 and my clothes are 12/14 if anyones a similar size. Are we just looking for lovely things or practical stuff as well, I have Jeans I bought in the wrong size I just can't get into.

**Skips off to wardrobe**
