Dave’s hat and your cowel are gorgeous. Love the colours for your exordium the new colour definitely shows more than black diamond would have. The colours for your slip stravaganza are beautiful. Your spinning is coming along nicely. Congratulations to the winners. Have a lovely week love and hugs xx
Good Morning Miss Mouse👋🐨🌏. Isn't it wonderful to be nearly 60 and know you can do whatever you please? I'll be 63 in a week or so and it still stands true 🤭♥️Your camera is very cheeky to start rolling before you're ready! Have a good evening and cast on whatever you please, whenever you please .🙏xx
Can’t wait to see your slipstravaganza, I’ve always liked that pattern. Love the black diamond prototype, it’s going to shine with the one of a kind skein 🙂
Having caught up with the mystery shawl along, I finished a short-sleeve cardigan and had nothing left in WIPs so I've cast on an Aran weight hat. New clue comes out tomorrow plus a gnome along starts tomorrow too so I'll be busy enough with them for a few days, lol. Thanks for my prize, I actually punched the air when I heard, gosh I really am in my second childhood at almost 70, teehee
Lovey FOs and I'm always interested to see what you're making. Glad you got an answer on the spinning - I'm sticking with my "fiver says you get a wheel in three months" bet. Take care xx
Congratulations to the winners, and as your prize Mandy I hereby hand over the crown 👑 of many wips 😋 you have 36, I have 35 😮🤣🤣 I did curse myself all day Sunday for not resisting the temptation of casting on that blanket but I have since embraced it and my crown, which I am in no way sorry to lose 🤣🤣 Your scarf is going to be gorgeous 😍, Sally needs to go back and listen to Tonya she tells you not to stuff like that at the cast-on Party as we have all miscounted so, well done on proper preparations 😘 Your slipstravaganza is going to be amazing I can't wait to see your progress 😍 OMG MANDY!!! your Exordium is absolutely stunning, I love it 🤤I did Love Sarah's idea of using the Diamond and Black Diamond together so they may or may not be sitting in a project bag ready to get cast on at some point 😁 You inspired me on Saturday to pull on my big girl pants and pull out similar yarn to do my Edie in, the yarn I was using says it's a 4 Ply but I was starting to get serious doubts and now I am so much happier with it, I'll show you either tonight or tomorrow 😘😘 stay hydrated and I'll speak to you soon xxx
I don't feel so bad now. I have 30 WIPs spanning 2 years - about 9 are single socks. Some of those WIPs will be finished, some will continue to languish and some will be frogged. As Ruth says "it's my knitting....." And as I say "butt out" 😏
I only have one kidney left working and it kept stabbing me all day to remind me that even though my nephrology consultant says alcohol is fine, it (my kidney) does NOT appreciate it! "And what's with the staying up 4 hours past your bedtime? And missing your meds so you could? Hmm?? HMMM??" Yep. I was in trouble with poor old kidney alright 😒
@@MousesMakes oh my girl! Well we are entitled to a celebration now and then. Sometimes it's just easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission, even with organs ..... my pancreas will be talking to me once I hit the trailer with the first burgers and wine barbecue night, I'll be Packing!, ( Hydromorphine that is lol) Cheers xx
Mandy it's a lovely shawl and coloration. Think the issue isn't what you are wearing but more matching of your hair and skin tones and appears to "wash you out a bit". Think it's just too similar maybe. It is gorgeous and the new one will work better.
I absolutely love the new color for the Exordium. It looks fantastic. I do have a question about Dave’s Musselburgh, how many inches do you make it, from end to end? I love the size of the brim on that one you just finished.
This one I did 22.5 inches from the cast on to the start of the decreases. Usually I knit until I have enough yarn for the decreases, usually 10g. That's with a 400m skein. X
Yup. I remember saying that too! Let's not talk about the sewing, cross stitch and papercradting supplies I have hanging around! Or the doll making paraphernalia 😬
I really like the cowl.👍🧶
“I’m nearly 60 so I can do what I want… .” YESSS!!!!
Thanks for your Podcast and your Inspirations. Enjoied it really, best wishes. Kindly
Good progress on your spinning! Find what works for you and go for it!
Love your "can do what i want" attitude!! An enjoyable podcast...as usual!! 😀
Your podcasts are always so lovely. ❤ I will knit whst I want to is a good Attitude to have. Dave's hat is gorgeous as well as your cowl. Take care ❤😊

I usually start it by holding up my hand and I was adjusting the angle, so it saw my palm and off it went I think!
Happy birthday in advance! Xx

I've got 32 wips mandy so you're in good company. I've finished 2 projects this week. It feels so good 😊 love your podcast.
Good! Knit what you want, that's why I, after seeing this episode, am going to start a Starflanket shawl and a blanket. Thank you!

🤣🤣🤣
I think your shawl matches your hair color very nicely, at least on my phone. It is a lovely shawl and you should wear it often.
🙌

I’m glad you only had 1 of the gray. I like the one of a kind skein better.😊
It’s your knitting and you can do what you want 😊
