Hi Lesley. Greetings from wonderwool. Lovely crochet shawl. I'm currently working through a collection of one skein crochet shawls by Annie Design Crochet. All simple but pretty. Have a restful weekend, take care. X

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Angela. Hope you are recovering well. You sent me down a Ravelry rabbit hole ( a Ravel hole?) looking at more shawl patterns - very pretty. Thanks and take good care xx

[@helenmoffat2353]

Gorgeous shawl!

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Helen. I will definitely be making another xx

[@judystone3645]

It sounds like the guild is very active. I hope you continue to go. You have so much knowledge to share, and I'm sure you could learn new things from others. Your green and blue shawl is just stunning. So Springlike. I look forward to the month end podcast since I've been Mia on watching this month. Take care, hope that cold is better. ❤

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Judy. I couldn't believe how quickly that shawl grew! I feel I have much more to learn than teach at the guild, but will enjoy sharing ideas and thoughts. Thanks so much and take very good care xx

[@louisewall7100]

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Louise. Hope all is good with you. Take care xx

[@Janet-ov7zx]

The yarn you spun for your shawl is gorgeous, and the shawl is just so perfect to show it off. Yes, definitely, worth doing again. I hope you feel more restored after a less busy weekend. I hope you and Heidi have a lovely one. harpingJanet

Thanks Dianne. Hope all is good with you. Xx

[@stitchitch7010]

Gorgeous shawl, the yarn really sets it off! 🧶 Hope you aren't starting a new illness. It seems we catch everything going round when our body's immune system is recovering.🤧 I see Princess Heidi likes to get the last drop of delectable goodness in her bowl. 🐾 Take care dearie! 😘

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks so much. I was very pleased with the shawl xx Madam certainly loves a cheese spread pot - she gets upset if I put something else on toast! Thanks and take care xx

[@annakatris3583]

Hello the beautiful Leasley, yes it is 1.30 am morning should be sleeping, but I am watching you (a lovely destraction). My dog is snoring beside me. I have been house sitting again, it is nice to sleep in my own bed. The five fish good, the green frog is good and the two old dogs are good. So all is well in both households. Lucky we live 10 minutes away and food is deleivered all cooked when ever I need it. I did knit five beanies and half a single blanket for my grand baby. I have not solved all the world problems, bit our family is happy. 🐸🐕🐟🙋🙋☺

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Anna. A happy family is a start to solving problems. What a lovely collection of things that you have made - sounds like a very productive and enjoyable time. Glad all of the animals are good. Wishing you a fun weekend. Take care xx

[@heathertucker7056]

Hope you managed to shake off your cold! We are still on holiday in Shropshire and really hoping to get to Wonderwool this weekend. I’ve never had the opportunity before so hope everything works out! Lovely to see Miss Heidi licking out her tub in the sunshine- which is exactly what our two do- given the chance! Take care x

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Heather - fingers crossed you get to Wwool - but either way, hope you are enjoying your holiday xz

[@summerking8659]

Hope the cold wasn’t too bad in the end Lesley, and you were feeling well enough to get the dental apt. over and done with x

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Muireann - it was an odd thing, that didn't really come to a cold at all, but I was very achy. I've re-scheduled the dentist for later in the month (yes, I am a coward!). Thanks and hope all is well with you xx

[@sheridenlomax325]

Hope you don't get poorly! Your shael is very pretty as is the colour! Take care.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks so much - I was so pleased with that shawl. Hope all is well with you xx

[@natalieinstitches]

Big huggles, lovely Lesley. You are a wonderful person and I hope the clouds sod off soon. Lovely chat as always 🤗🤗🤗💕💕💕

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Aw, thanks, Natalie - so lovely to hear from you. The clouds are old friends of mine - they come and go. I see that you are very busy at the moment, and hope that you are having lots of fun. Big hugs xxx

[@susanmarshall3709]

Good morning, Les. I am a strong believer in swishing with warm salted water for anything throat related. That and change your toothbrush!!! I hope you are better by now. I am slowly recovering my energy from Covid so I understand about the energy level lagging. I like your shawlette and it was put together so fast. See you at month end podcast.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Susan - all advice gratefully received! Hope you are getting your energy back in noticeable chunks - take care and see you soon! xx

[@EPMunzert]

When you started out saying, "Not quite enough . . " I thought regarding myself, "energy". And then you said "energy". So there you are, we are the low energy twins. I hope you begin to feel better soon!

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Wendy. Hope your energy levels are returning. Thanks and take good care xx

[@zabaglione]

Lovely shawlette! Reminds me of a similar one called the dragon scale shawl? That one has back post trebles in it. Hope you're doing well and managed to fight off the lurgy.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

....and now I've gone down a rabbit hole of patterns called "dragon scale shawls" on ravelry. Ian, you are leading me astray (but I'm not exactly resisting! Hope all is well. Thanks so much and take good care xx

[@zabaglione]

@@NotQuiteEnoughYarn Not sure about scale but dragon is definitely in the name! I spend hours looking through patterns on Ravelry.

[@pip-woollycwtches]

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Pip. Hope you have a great time - enjoy meeting everyone and happy shopping, too. Thanks and take care xx
