Knotty problem

What sort of mind decided to design this ornament?  I fell in love with it, and a friend bought it for me.  Very tactile.
Did some more tidying in the garden and took advantage of the sun to sit out there and have my lunch.  Such a treat. 
Storm promised tomorrow, so have to make the most of it.
Dress I ordered on line arrived and it fits - just needs shortening.  It is what I would call a 'comfortable rather than smart' casual affair.  I am tired of wearing trousers but it has been the easiest option with the recent weather and lack of outings.
Saving the vacuuming for tomorrow!
