So sorry for keeping you in suspense, but suddenly there were so many more interesting things to write about. Anyway, here at last is the new bedspread, purchased a couple of weeks ago in the newest Newhaven charity shop. This one isn't part of a national chain but is a long-established local charity supporting disabled adults. Local charity shops like this I find are in general not so good for clothes, but better for bric-a-brac; a bit more like a good old fashioned jumble sale.
Anyway, I couldn't resist this multi-coloured crochet treasure trove. And it - and similar crocheted blankets - do have a use. The cross bed has a solid base and a foam mattress, which can attract a lot of condensation. Putting a blanket like this under the mattress seems to help reduce this, by spacing it out and providing some airflow.
Oh dear. Does this mean you've run out of good stuff to write about? Let's hope the muse strikes again tomorrow! (Not that this wasn't interesting, of course...
ReplyDeleteOn the contrary - today we bought a big box full of nuts and bolts. And washers. And if that's not interesting, I don't know what is!
