Your shawl looks beautiful. I think we may have started something now! I bought some wool to knit some fingerless mitts for Abi yesterday. I asked DH to take me to the shop! <br /><br />Gorgeous flowers from Julie.Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08883231391662433334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2073198955814650210.post-58952620464626387692012-06-19T17:03:19.910+01:002012-06-19T17:03:19.910+01:00What a great blog post Barb, so full of news and l...What a great blog post Barb, so full of news and lovely pictures and, oh heaven...a JA fix...thank you :-) Well done on finishing Mrs Darcy. It's beautiful.<br /><br />I had a feeling you weren't well, it must be a "twin" thing :-) I do hope you are feeling better now. I'm glad you were able to keep your hands busy as that helps keep the spirits up. I love your beautiful shawlette. No wonder you nearly lost it! I'm not surprised you are itching to make another especially in that gorgeous deep red colour. Oh how I adore those JA fingerless gloves. I saw a copy of the first magazine whilst I was in America last October and whilst it was gorgeous, nothing really appealed but these gorgeous gloves definitely do appeal. Oooh, I love them!!<br /><br />I loved reading of your trip to Portland. What a lovely photo of Portland Harbour. It brings back so many memories. I adore honeysuckle too but ours is light years away from flowering. Well I didn't know Valerian was called Kiss Me Quick. We had loads of it in our garden.<br /><br />Not long now till my trip :-) I will have lots of news on my return.<br />Take care and get completely better soon :-)<br />Angela xxangelaswebyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15450570230777338043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2073198955814650210.post-44786233327551216032012-06-19T10:53:21.901+01:002012-06-19T10:53:21.901+01:00Sorry to hear you have both been ill, and hope you...Sorry to hear you have both been ill, and hope you are better soon.

A few ladies seem to be enjoying knitting instead of stitching recently, crochet blanket here needs attention before the winter months.<br /><br />The flowers look good, I always worry when I send postal flowers, would have been better if I could have delivered them personally, but this way I did escape the germs! Lol.<br /><br />Portland looks a lovely place, a sailing team not far from us will be there officiating at the Olympics. It's nice you feel close to your dad when visiting.<br /><br />My dad worked in the hosiery and used to bring end of cones home so I used to help my gran wind them in 4 and 6 ply into balks, I used to love it.<br /><br />Love and (hugs) xxJuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13863899802782756191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2073198955814650210.post-76399917386361410202012-06-17T08:59:27.146+01:002012-06-17T08:59:27.146+01:00Nice to hear from you Barb, sorry that you've ...Nice to hear from you Barb, sorry that you've been ill.<br />Your shawl is beautiful and as for those Austen mittens, oh my, they are fabulous. <br />My girls hide (literally) if I emerge from the study with a hank of wool in my hands.
