WOYWW...

 Well? What is on my work desk today?  The answer is not a lot....so it's a quick of from me today.

 We had a really wonderful long weekend away to celebrate my darling's big birthday.  We went to a lovely dog friendly cottage in South Wales...it was wonderful [apart from the stairs!!].  When you live in a bungalow because you struggle with stairs it was a bit of a shock to find our cottage had an upstairs sitting room and downstairs bedrooms and bathrooms....more about all that on Friday including a few photos :-)

On my desk today are a few Easter sheep filled with cream eggs....Jo knits so fast and has knitted loads of chicks, sheep and rabbits but I thought I'd knit a few....every one boosts the funds for the charity.



Here are 4 sitting on my little ironing board....I've made a purple one and am half way through a turquoise one now :-)

I've enjoyed knitting them but am slow and have to pace myself because of the arthritis in my hands.




That's my lot for today.  If you'd like to pop back on Friday you can read more about our weekend away.....and why not share a few of your own smiles....all are welcome.

Hugs,

Annie x

i've seen your sister's knitting for Easter, some wonderful baskets of joy to sell for your charity. Yours will swell the takings and what a great find to have at a sale before Easter.
Glad you had a wonderful weekend too. An upside down cottage?

We stayed in a house in Wales that we like to call the 'upside down house'. There were wonderful sea views from the lounge with it being up so high, or there would have been if it wasn't the middle of Winter! Loving your little sheep. Even the thought of kntting makes my wrists hurt so well done for keeping at it! Have a lovely week, Lisa-Jane #10 www.prettymypage.co.uk
