I would need Irish linen sheets and a set of Belleek or Limoge!<br /><br />I enjoy using Renaissance yarns myself, so I think your socks and beret are the best!<br /><br />I will be leaving on my own adventure in about a month, although not in a caravan. My husband and I will be sailing into the sunset, eg, down the east coast of the US then off shore to the Bahamas. I'm bringing lots of knitting, weaving and spinning with me (alas! no dyeing). As of yet there will be no linen sheets or bone china. Sigh... maybe I'll find some along the way? We'll be gone about 9 months.<br /><br />Happy travels to you!<br /><br />Brenda<br />www.argoknot.comBrendahttp://www.argoknot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335904344851945665.post-71802640652596710992012-07-20T00:40:21.568-07:002012-07-20T00:40:21.568-07:00That caravan is not in New Zealand yet, unfortunat...That caravan is not in New Zealand yet, unfortunately.

Many many years ago she too travelled throughout Britain with a horse and wagon and wrote songs which have lately become rather famous. Good luck to your ideas they are great to read about.Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13934325497930241287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6335904344851945665.post-44388231444100015882012-07-13T01:15:35.443-07:002012-07-13T01:15:35.443-07:00So nice to see you restarted this blog.
