Wonderful update! I also love Bendigo Wool. I've also signed up for the SC KAL - how exciting! I'm bringing along my cloudbusting wip.

Hello, Betty, so excited for you to be working with the 👑 Queen of Vintage Knitting herself!!! What a dream job!🥰 Oh, I made the Sirdar Coronation Blanket too but still have some ends to work in and finishing to do. I bought a kit with the original colours. I don't think I've seen anyone else do the red, white and royal blue. I like how you did the border in purple and gilt/gold instead of the frost blue and cream. Of course, I mean the ones I saw on Ravelry. LOL. You know, I❤Ravelry. It is great to see what other colours or mods other crocheters/knitters make. Take care and take some time to rest between all your KALs and CALs

I make impulse purchases too. It's inevitable with KZbin and Instagram. It's not our fault. I'm joining in with the Susan Crawford KAL, making the Marina gloves. New yarn purchased from the Knitting and Stitching show yesterday. Just got to cake it up. I've not knit gloves with fingers before. X

[@knittingwithbetty]

Haha I’m the queen of being a spend thrift then making lavish impulse buys! 🤦🏻‍♀️ ooo u love Marina so can’t wait to see your version 💕

[@petramanos]

I just got up to the section where you talked about working for Susan Crawford. Congratulations, that must have been so exciting for you!

[@knittingwithbetty]

Very exciting indeed 🤗

[@petramanos]

Omg, I saw a moth sitting on my newly knit jumper the other day. It's been in time out in the freezer since then. I know I have some moths in my wardrobe because I use the sticky pheromone traps that kill the males. I keep all my knitwear in plastic tub and hope for the best!! I think the change to warmer weather has brought them out in full force. We have huge mosquitos so we have three large blue lamps with electric grills which zap insects. It gets a lot of moths as well. One is on our deck on a timer to and in the morning the native birds get a BBQ meal! No chemicals in the house, but in summer when we get blowflies it occasionally smells like fried fly 🤢

[@knittingwithbetty]

Oh my!!! Fried flies 🤣 just reminds me of garibaldi biscuits lol. I’m sure you have some much scarier bugs too, or are they more up north?

[@petramanos]

@@knittingwithbetty well there are the terrifying hairy spiders that set themselves up outside to eat the moths that are attracted by the lamp... But then those are eaten by the equally terrifying giant wasps and the cute and cuddly looking geckos.

Hi Betty please could you put the microphone a bit lower down, the sound seems off, maybe it's a bit too much bass and muffled yet loud. Sometimes it sounds like your eating it and when you move around and catch it or knock it makes some horrid noises, it's dreadful wearing headphones on anyway. Please don't take offence I love your channel and look forward to new videos but it is putting me off but I haven't wanted to say for fear of it sounding rude. Thank you x
