Hi Mandy lovin the CARDI. Also I'm last year I started embracing JOMO- Joy of missing out over FOMO- Fear of missing out. It wasn't initially easy but has been the best thing for me. Enjoy watching what everyone else is doing whilst progressing with what I need to start, do or finish. Like the socks. Tell yourself NO And it is ok to say it. Hoping the best for poppy. Thanks and Take care
You have a lot on your mind with Miss Poppy 😢. Please don’t be so hard on yourself. It’ll all get done (projects) when they get done. Take care of yourself and family and your fur babies. ❤
Mandy, hugs to you. I hope Miss Poppy does better this week. I’ve had a disastrous week with my knitting. Pulled way more out than put it. But your colorwork is golden! 😬
I’m sorry you’ve had such a go with your sweater. The colorwork really is lovely. Your cowl is pretty! 🎄 oooh, I like the Calm Shawl. 😊Are you dyeing an Advent this year? I’m sorry to hear about Poppy. 😢 🙏🏻🙏🏻 The squares for your Large Cardigan are working up nicely. The Bee Creations mitts are cute. Nice pattern. I’m an Oct birthday, too. Mine is the 15th. I gear up for Stephen West but haven’t made one yet. 😂 This will be year 3 since I learned of the yearly MAL. Hugs! 💜💜💜
Don't be hard on yourself your sweater can be parked for a time. I love the squares you are knitting for cardigan. Take on small projects for a while or finish small wips. I have been in hospital with Swine Flu and Pneumonia. I am recovering slowly. ❤😊
Such a shame about your silver forest, but I’m sure you will find new colours for it in the future. Loving the lodge cardigan I sort of started one but I’ve put it in time out as not sure about my yarn lol. Big hugs and love to you all and miss Poppy of course xx
I’m so sorry about your color work sweater. I’ve been there twice before. I’ve knitted the beautiful yolk and both times it would not fit. I still have the yarn and I’m determined to try it again sometime, but that was a good three or four years ago.
I’m sorry about the color work sweater, but I understand being done with a pattern (at least for a little bit). Sometimes we just need a break from a frustrating pattern 😅. I’m sorry to hear about Poppy. It’s frustrating when we can’t get help for our fur-babies. I can’t wait to see your mitered square cardigan, I love the colors - they are beautiful. Hope you have an awesome week!
Hi Mandy, sorry about your Silver Forest sweater! I am in the same spot with my Festive Yoke sweater and afraid to try it on, but I must be brave and get it over with today I think 🤐 Can't wait to see what you cast on in August 😊 Much love to Poppy ❤❤
Hi Mandy ❤ gutted for your colour wrk sweater but it’s either right or it’s wrong isn’t it I don’t know how I manage to not get drawn into mkals as you say when you see all the colours and the excitement it’s so hard not to Your cardi wow it’s gonna be gorgeous So sorry poppy’s not herself again it’s so hard to watch them poorly hope she’s going to perk up soon my lovely take care thinking of you both ❤❤
I am trying to play catch-up now that Christmas in July is over 😂 The colorwork is so gorgeous, I am sorry it isn't fitting. Do you have any knitting friends that the pullover would fit that you could pass it over for them to complete? I just hate to see such beautiful colorwork pulled out 😦😉
@@MousesMakes I am very busy this summer. Extensive flower and veggie gardens to tend; two dogs, three horses to cleanup after.(barns don’t clean themselves), and two cats (with two litter pans). No, I can’t let them roam free outside, too many fast cars, trucks and motorcycles.

So sorry Poppy isn’t well Mandy. Looking forward to seeing your Cardigan finished, it’s looking great 🧶
Big big hugs for you, all family and Miss Poppy. All in my thoughts.
So sorry the Silver Forest is not working out. It is so pretty. The cardigan is looking lovely. Hope Poppy feels better soon.

Oh dear! That's is bad news! I do hope you're fully recovered soon xx

I hope Poppy will be ok. It’s such a stressful time when our family aren’t well 🐾❤ xx
Sorry you've had a disappointing time with that beautiful sweater. And all the Miss Poppy worry, too. Take good care xx

With your colourwork sweater, what about putting a turtleneck on the top and ribbing in the bottom and make it into a shrug 🤔

Not with 28" busts unfortunately! But it's OK! I have plans x
@@MousesMakes good can't wait
Would you not make a wee poncho out of your colourway "disaster"?
That is plan b, plan c is a cowl. But right now, it's in a drawer in disgrace lol! X
You have a stopping point for cast ons? Only 40? I would go crazy with more than three.
Doris!! I was only wondering where you got to the other day! Yep, for some reason 40 is my ceiling! And they've ALL got stitch stoppers on 😉 xx

I have noticed the stitch stoppers on most of your projects.
I'm so sorry your cat isn't well.
Give poppy a Scottish cuddle from me poor wee soul x☹️
Can’t you use your colour work as a cowl, just add a collar/ rib neck ? It’s lovely ❤
💕♥💕🧶🌻✨
instead of ripping it back could you turn it into a cowl x
Someone else had the same idea. I might well do that x
