Hi Knittie78 - welcome to the thread! I see you have already had a warm welcome from the other lovely knitters on here. I hope you enjoy it here, and we all look forward to getting to know you.

Elaine - (((hugs))) to you.

Feeling really tired today - too much DIY, I think! Hope you all have a great evening.

Hi peeps!

Here’s me, feeling quite a lot better today. Still got intermittent sneeze attacks & coughing a bit but the sore throat is almost gone – yippee! I’ll have to be fit ‘cos DS is arriving with his OH on Sunday & the spare room is still full of ‘stash’ & loads of Mums stuff plus all the odd bits of furniture which only get used when there’s a houseful, so must get my bum in gear over the next couple of days.

Shaz glad the court went well & you are now able to sleep a bit.:T

PippaS – your holiday sounds lovely, just the thing to set you up for winter!:cool:

Isom – what sort of blanket did you want to make? Have you tried the sideways shell one I posted the other week?

Orkneystar – fabulous pirate & what a handsome young man – so cute!

Psso – sorry to hear you’ve not been well, try to take care of yourself! Glad your DS has got a new job & that your DD is now back at work.:heartsmil

Chalky – I read your blog yesterday morning – sooo lovely to wake up to! Your piccies of that lovely blue Spanish sky made me wish I was over at my place, but I’ve rented it out for a couple of months so no can do – perhaps after chrimbo! I so enjoy reading your words – you make the pics come alive – Thank you!:T

Kathy, sounds like your doing too much again – hope you captured some more pics of work in progress – they keep us all slightly green with envy but so glad we’re not going through the hassle, still it’ll be worth it when we all come over to visit - :rotfl::j:T:rotfl: - ooh! thanks for the down to earth linky - the forum looks interesting!

Knitty78 – welcome thread – I’m sure you’ll like it here, generally we’re only slightly mad :j:eek::rotfl:

time for a drinkie poo! 'bye for now

luv

Good morning everyone.

Maytaurus - hope you are OK; we miss you.

ISOM - (((hugs))) to you; it can't be easy following a pattern if you're dyslexic, so I really admire you. And with thin wool, too!

Pam - glad you're starting to feel better. How often do you get over to your place in Spain? We have been taking photos so I'll be putting some more on my blog. Whether the place will ever turn into a Knitters' Retreat is anyone's guess! I sat crocheting in the conservatory yesterday afternoon; the sun was shining so it was really warm and I could look over farmland, so it would make a lovely place for a group of knitters or crocheters (I wonder what they would be called? You know, we say a flock of birds, a herd of horses - what on earth would a group of knitters be called?!) Mad, probably!

Elaine - hope you're feeling better now. Glad that DD is back at work, and that DS has a job.

Well, I finished a scarf last night - well, I say finished; I have some loose ends to sew in and I'll make a couple of flowers to go on one end of it (because I was going to add a fringe but I won't have enough yarn). It's a Christmas present for my SIL. I used some really nice sheeny copper-coloured wool I picked up at our local sort-of-charity shop, so the scarf will only have cost €1 and a bit of time!

I'm going to make some more poppies today, and do a bit more to DGS's lapghan. Well, that's the intention but, having been told that all the dust-making part of the current DIY is over, I also need to have a good clean up!

See you all later.

Hi Knitty 78, nice to meet you, biccy crumbs on keyboard is normal.

mioliere thanks for information on firefox, will go and do that. Also thanks for link, that blog is lovely, and she plays Queen while we're ogling! Would it be a clique of knitters?

Glad you're feeling a bit better prfungi.

ISOM re Isoke sitting on your chest while you type, that's an immpressive chest. I have trouble keeping US and English in my head when reading patterns, so hats off to you following them.

Nice to see you psso, fingers crossed for a period of calm.

Hi maytaurus, hope all is well and you're saving us a nice long post.

love and hugs to everyone xxx

A group of crocheters could be --- ummmh "hookers!!

Good morning 1 and all and welcome Knitty
Sun is still shining here and I do so hope it continues for dd2 who arrives today- excitement in the typing!!

Pam -- Thanks for kind words about blog. I am loving it and its so nice to get your encouraging words. Hope the improvement in the sniffles continue and you have a great weekend with your family.

Rippling has started and I am enjoying it more than last time -- not quite so much concentration needed and assured all will look great no matter what colour combinations you choose. I am going in rows of 2 for each stripe and two shades together . Will post a piccie soon xx Will do some on the way to airport today.

Market here this morning. 1 of my favourite days of the week as I love all the veggies and at such a good price.

Well one and all have good days filled with happy thoughts and if that is impossible at the moment a gentle hug is on its way through the keypad right now xxx
