Oh, this is simply the elixir of happiness in a bottle! Charmed to have made the acquaintance of Coco and SOOO excited to hear that plans are afoot for a grand reopening! Only yesterday, I was putting my summer handbag together, adding some of your exquisite pouches, wondering when I would be able to get a little shopping done and now the count down has started! Stunning Love Note and your choice of yarns for the Pim-Pom shawl is beautifully zingy, go for it! Enjoy your elevenses with Coco !

[@cocoandflora6542]

Thank you for your comments Nathalie they have made my weekend!😊😊 thank you for the encouragement…I have made some stuff, just need to do the boring admin part next🤗x

Thanks Elaine😀I’m looking forward to knitting those socks! Happy knitting x

[@yarnmugspodcast9123]

Hi Eva. Love your Love Note and a perfect match for the Succulent yarn. I treated myself to both those yarns too. 😊

[@cocoandflora6542]

Thanks Sarah, I can’t wait to see what you make with them! X

[@julielines3281]

Hi so lovely to see you and all your beautiful makes x I’m so glad your reopening your shop I’ve been recently using a little pouch you made it’s perfect x

[@cocoandflora6542]

Thank you so much! That is so encouraging!!🙂🙂x

[@adrianalipski8042]

Hi Eva, A delightful podcast! Your Love Note is gorgeous and I love the color! What a cleaver idea to add a rose in the back. The contrast yarns are going to look so nice with Hurkle Durkle. A fun knit for sure. I may have to buy Sandra’s yarn for socks to match my Love Note since our yarns are so similar, 😉 Such a cute intro for Coco.

[@cocoandflora6542]

Thanks Adriana🙂Yes you should definitely buy the yarn😁😁I’m looking forward to seeing your Love Note! Xx

[@angieroberts1277]

Hi Eva, lovely to see you again. Your Love note is gorgeous, lovely colour. Some fingerless mitts would be nice with the leftovers. When you started telling the story about Coco I thought blimey you are very trusting taking a stranger in your house 🤣🤣🤣

[@cocoandflora6542]

Thanks Angie, that is a great idea for the leftovers! I can use up the mohair too for some Penny gloves🙂. I reasoned I could probably beat Coco in a fight if it came to it😂😂

[@debbiestuckey6599]

I think Cocoa will be a great asset to your company! However, don't you think that Kyle would be handy for clean up?! I'd put him right on it. 😅☺️ They are so cute! I love your blanket. It has beautiful colors.

[@cocoandflora6542]

Thanks Debbie🙂I think you are so right, Kyle needs some direction in life, I’m going to offer him a job👍👍

[@penelopeschinwag]

I won't forget the date! My mum's name is Eva, her birthday was the 7th June as is my youngest grand daughter's - she will be 27 this year! Lovely knits and colour combinations. I too felt slightly shocked when you said you'd invited someone in and given him the job. What! Of course, he's just right! xx

[@cocoandflora6542]

That’s amazing that your granddaughter shares a birthday with your lovely mum! And what a great birth date it is too😁. Yes, I think my maverick hiring technique paid off on this occasion😉👍x

[@TracyKNixon]

Hi Eva! Loving your projects! Your love note is gorgeous! I have purchased the pattern but yet to knit it! I have also purchased the Sunkissed Succulents by Lay Family Yarn but in both the fingering and suri alpaca yarns with the intention of either knitting a pair of penny gloves of a Love Note! RE your PimPom shawl by Laura Penrose, this is just my opinion but I would leave the bright pink colour pop out, if I was to knit it! I just love the Hurkle Durkle yarn with the Drops Nord in blush only x

[@cocoandflora6542]

Ooh you Sunkissed yarn will be so lovely with the Suri😍. I think I will knit some Penny gloves with my Love Note left overs based on another comment here! I think you could have a point about the Pim Pom, when I put the bright pink by the Hurkle Durkle, without the blush, they don’t suit each other at all! I will have another think when I get to that part x

[@knitting.in.the.north.]

Lovely to see your blanket, as I’m knitting one with one strand of 4ply, speckled and one strand of undyed and it does’nt really show the colour very well, but will continue with it and start another one with two strands of 4ply and go down a needle size and the stitch definition and colour is much better. I’ve posted a photo on Instagram. X💕

[@cocoandflora6542]

They are a relaxing knit aren’t they?! That’s a good point about needle size. I’m not on Instagram, but I will look up your blanket via one of my children😄x

[@knitting.in.the.north.]

@@cocoandflora6542 hello Eva, I’ve just watched your January podcast and can relate so much with you on your blanket as I had the same problem, then a friend suggested I only use speckled yarn with the undyed and it works, although the colours are lost slightly, so i will start another one, using two strands of 4 ply speckled! I originally used a cone of undyed, but it was so coarse for merino and shredded my fingers and had quite an odour to it! so I’m using @Rooster undyed for the original one. All a learning process i guess! Take care and look forward to your next podcast. I’ve subscribed! X💕

[@cocoandflora6542]

It can take some faffing to get going can’t it! Thanks for subscribing🎉
