Hi Lesley, yes had a melting week! Bit cooler today thank goodness. Knacks lung and stifling heat equals lots of inhaler use and, maybe, ice lollies and ice cream. Had to be done Lesley, I was literally melting with my huge fan facing me and another a bit further away. How lovely Himself is. I may have purchased some 20g minis from Bonayarns that are well ultra vibrant! Not arrived yet, but I'm waiting. Oh you had me then. As you was revealing the winner " Go on Lesley, say Jane Daniel ". You say Jane and my stomach dropped, but no had to ruin it with a Y. 😂😂😂 But I was excited for a millisecond. Huge congratulations to you for the 6K milestone and congratulations to your winner. Have a great week. xxJane 🐑🌼

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Oh, I am so sorry to gave disappointed you - but your ultra vibrant happy mail sounds very exciting! Think we have some slightly cooler weather on the way. Hope it's a bit more comfy. Thanks, as always, and take care xx

[@johannabliss5406]

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Ooh I am jealous - I have a soft spot for Dachshunds! Hope it was a fun week. Thanks so much xx

[@carolroy5435]

Hi Leslie 👋 Good pickings for yarn in Donegal, for sure (according to Kate from Hawthorne Cottage). After that cliffhanger, can't wait to see your month-end podcast!

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hiya. Darn, I should have watched Kate before I gave him directions! Hope all is well - will catch up soon xx

[@rosemaryedwards3293]

Your comments about UK needle sizes on ball bands made me laugh, as I am sitting here i a very wet Wales today using number 8 and number 10 needles! Love Heidi - she really does pose for the camera! And many congratulations to the winner of the 6k giveaway.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Rosemary. I still have lots of "old size" needles - they are a lovely reminder of previous generations of knitters. Hope you are enjoying your knitting. Thanks and take care xx

[@Jenny_stickar]

A himself is hard to come by these days. Glad you’ve got one 😊 Happy to see you again ❤

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks, but believe me, there are times when I would lend him out! Hope all is well with you. Thanks and take care xx

[@m.5018]

Heidi is living the life. 💕. Have a go9d weekend.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Charlene - she always does! Thanks and hope you have a good one too xx

[@pip-woollycwtches]

Hi Lesley 👋. Apologies first…i have watched your two previous pods. I loved the one with your sister. You bounce off each other well. On both episodes i meant to go back and comment but it hasn’t happened 🙈. I have a good excuse though 😝. I was spinning while watching you. I have at long last got somewhere with my wheel. And finding it very addictive. Plus i have taught myself, with guidance from the Julianeve podcast, to use a Turkish drop spindle and also addicted to that too. 😊. The studio Donegal yarn looks lovely. I haven’t tried any of theirs yet but i like the look of their tweedy shades. I look forward to the month’s end pod. Take care x

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Pip Thanks so much and please don't worry about not commenting - especially as both hands were so happily occupied! Glad you are enjoying the spinning. Take good care xx

[@stitchitch7010]

Congratulation JanieK!🧶 Looking forward to the podcast ❤ Ah, Heidi has the best idea for a warm summer day 🐾 Doesn't Susan from Wild Cottage talk about Donegal wool? I miss seeing her lovely work. Take care dearie😘

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hiya. I know that Susan is a bit supporter of all Irish yarns, so although I don't remember her speaking about Donegal specifically, I am sure you are right. Thanks so much and hope you are well xx

[@marywanamaker2700]

Have a great weekend.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Thanks Mary - hope you had a good one xx

[@ruthbishop8653]

Dear Leslie, always enjoy your vlogs/podcasts, love your sense of humour. Just a thought, have you seen the Gibbs Hall cardigan, it fits into your ethos. Love to you and Heidi.

[@NotQuiteEnoughYarn]

Hi Ruth. Thanks for that suggestion. I've just had a look and I see what you mean! Hope all is well with you. Thanks and take care xx

[@lindas.patton7552]
