Hey, did you happen to see the most beautiful shoes in the world...?

Well hello there. Gosh, here I am with my very own blog. Another thing achieved before I reach 40, as well as trying to learn to play the saxophone, but more about that another time. Yes I know, it has taken me quite a while to get with this concept - hell I only got broadband at home two months ago. I got my arse kicked by Carolyn though for being one of her only blogless friends. So, as we were supposed to be doing a Maddox knit-a-long together I thought it was only polite to be able to show her how much I was beating her - mwahahaha!

Anyway, you are probably wondering - what a strange title for a post about knitting. Well, I also wanted to kick off my blog with some unbridled consumer lust (start as you mean to go on I reckon) and introduce you to Elvira sitting patiently in my wardrobe for spring to arrive. How gorgeous are they?

So, what to expect from Shell's Pearls? Well, lots of knitting progress (hopefully!) and musings on whatever takes my fancy - music, books, food and a healthy dose of shoe purchasing. You have been warned...
