I'm pleased to report that Mum successfully finished the jumper she was knitting as a present in time.  It hasn't reached the recipient yet but that is beside the point.  Aunty Biscuit meanwhile continues to work on the jigsaw although she has also done a few lines of knitting on the intermittent jumper and has picked up a pencil and done a bit of sketching for the first time in several weeks.  Apparently she is pleased with her puffin but the pheasant looks alarmed, hhmm.
