No Photos but Two Mysteries

Mystery One:
It's a mystery to me how I managed to get pneumonia but it's fairly common it seems, amongst the imuno-compromised. I'm feeling a lot better now but still totally exhausted when I least expect it!

Mystery Two:
What would you get if you knitted the following in DK weight wool and about 4.5/5mm needles?

Colour A: Brown: Cast On 15 stitches, knit 50 rows (25 ridges garter st) cast off leaving longish tail. *Using longish tail and a running stitch, gather one long side of the rectangle, pull tight and fasten. Join and seam the two short sides creating an open ended cylinder. Turn seams to centre. Gather remaining long side closing the cylinder completely. Squash gathered sections together making a kind of low cup shape.*

Colour B Cream: Cast On 13 stitches, knit 50 rows (25 ridges garter st) cast off leaving longish tail. Repeat *to *.

Colour C Cherry Red: Cast on 6 stitches, knit 8 rows cast off leaving longish tail. Using longish tail make running stitches around the whole rectangle and pull tight making a small ball.

To Assemble. Place small cream cup shape inverted inside larger brown cup shape and sew together as invisibly as you can. Sew cherry red ball on top of cream cup shape. Weave in and trim ends.

If anyone can get it I'll send out a prize - not sure what the prize will be (another mystery!) but I know I'll have something fun somewhere!
