WOYWW....

What a beautiful week we are having with lots of lovely sunshine and doesn't it make you feel great?

This morning I'm wearing my Nanny Annie hat and I shall be having a play time with two very special little girls so I am launching this automatically and will be popping in on my blogging friends a little later in the day.  Both my daughters are having scans this morning....The eldest who is having twins has an appointment at 9.30am and the youngest daughter who is expecting her third has her appointment at 10am so they are taking over the scanning clinic for an hour or more  :-).......I hope to have other photos to share with you later.  I'm so excited and can't wait to see the babies :-)

On my desk this morning is ...



This lovely crocheted shawl that I have just finished and........








 The latest little knittie.  This is in the softest double knitting wool and has a lovely little frill around the bottom so is obviously one for a girl.  I'm now knitting a little hat to match it with a cute little flower on the side  :-)



 Also I have just received my latest parcel of yummy wools ready for knitting.  I  really enjoyed knitting the little ones in the 4 ply and have managed to fund some really pretty wools. So, as they say, watch this space for the next instalment  :-)



I have a rail full of trousers to shorten and yet another pair of b***** curtains to shorten too today!!!.....guess there is always tomorrow  :-)



Now folks, before you pop over to Julia's blog, it's time to pop over to our blog shop because this week Twiglet and I have launched the BIG followers celebration draw.  It will be running til April 4th so make sure you get over there asap to get your name down and join in the fun.
