Lest you think its only me getting blue things, I have done my boys well over the last week as well.
Kev got a pair of blue Noro Silk Garden Toasties after he drooled all over mine. Ok, Ok...he actually has only gotten one toasty, which he keeps waving in my general direction and tells me how much he "can't wait" for the other one to be finished. I have dutifully cast on the other one, but just knitting in the round is rather dull.
And Ellis' filthy ikea children's table got a new lease of life with some garden furniture and blackboard paint. The furtinure paint was then knocked over in the dark by the shed and I stepped in it and now have little blue splodges all over the house. On the plus side: the table now matches most rooms.
