WOYWW...

Happy Wednesday everyone.  

Firstly today I have to say Happy Anniversary to Twiglet and her hubby.  They have been married 37 years today. Hoping you both have a really special day.

As ever, following our Funday Monday comes a need to catch up on Tuesday at sewing by Annie's and this week has been no different.  My rail was full before Twiglet arrived this week and not a lot of work was done during the rest of the day.  We had a visit from M and spent the day chatting, giggling and enjoying our day together. [ just what the Dr ordered  :-)  ]




This was my 'to do' rail yesterday morning [2 of my customers brought 10 items between them!] but thankfully I cleared most of that yesterday.  I am now up to 1070 customers so, as you can imagine, business is booming.




 This is the latest little knittie I have now finished.  I think the little smiley face buttons just make this little cardi [click on pic to enlarge if you want a closer look]....


 .....and I am now knitting with the gorgeous wool Jo from Jozarty brought me back from Germany.  I love how the colours are appearing as I knit.  This one started off with casting on 193 stitches and will take a while to complete  but I am really enjoying using this wool so thank you Jo.  :-)


Well, thats about it from me today.  I will do my best to get round as many of you as possible but if I fail to get to you then thank you for visiting me and for your lovely comments.  Hoping you have a really great week.

I hope you will all pop over to Julia's now and join in the WOYWW fun.

Those smiley buttons are perfect. They're the tiny detail that raise it from a nice cardigan to a great one.

I love your wool. I crochet at night when I'm sitting in bed and make mostly large blankets for sitting in front of the fire or watching TV in the cold months.

The little cardigan is so cute, and the wool from Jo makes my fingers itch!!!

How brilliant that business is so good, although I'm not surprised!
Jo's wool is looking gorgeous, can't wait to see the finished item.
Your last post is gorgeous. What a lovely family and your daughter is definitely blooming. I'm so glad she is feeling so much better now.
Sorry to be so late visiting this week. The sunshine has returned which means making the most if it!!
