Snap

I need to make a small something by next Saturday. I found a pattern for a crocheted item that might do, but then I had to search for a crochet hook (found in a box in the shed) and some wool. I found a tiny amount of wool in a box in my sewing room. I have no idea how old this wool is, but this is as far as I got before the wool just snapped:

So then I went to visit my mother, who has a stash of left-over wool. I chose a couple of bits, and will try this pattern again tomorrow.
