    It’s just wonderful that she sounds are the same across cultures. Why didn’t we humans just create one language like the animals, that would have been so nice.
    Sounds like you had a good time at the lake, taking time out during the summer is wonderful.

    Happy Anniversary! My husband and I celebrated our57th anniversary on the 16th of June. Sadly, he passed away a week later unexpectedly, but how lucky were we to get so many years! Be sure to take a rest after the yarn event. You don’t want to get sick again.

    Happy midsummer! It has been over 38° C In Tennessee for it feels like 3 weeks so I have been overheated and doing very little. I have a ranaculas on needles in ribbon yarn for my sister and a muscleberg type hat for my son in bamboo. Both yarns are challenging!!!! I am glad you are back. You inspire me to power thru! With this weather I appreciate the winter and visaversa.

    Currently winter here South Australia. Sunny but cold as! Knitting "Born on the Beach" lace dress for our trip to hot Egypt/Jordan. Not a very well written pattern. As translated into English. Love Peonie flowers but only grow in mountainous colder climate in Australia.

    I'm late in watching this week's episode because I was saving it for a little holiday that I've gone on with my parents. Just having a quiet rest morning in my little cabin and watching your podcast while knitting on my Este top, and to me that's the perfect holiday 😂 I'm so happy you got a little break last week when your husband took you away to the cottage. I'm sure that will have done you good. Also happy you get to have your mum with you too for a bit ❤ Hope all goes well with the knit festival and you get a lovely long break and time to relax after! We have had a pretty miserable summer in the UK so far - we also had about 3 days of hot, sunny weather, then the rest has hardly even made it to 18⁰! But means I get to enjoy my knitted shawls longer, so can't really complain 😂

    Love the salty air tee and the yarn look very nice. Today I'm wearing a new sweater Brännö in drops Belle it feels "marine style" off white with garter stripes in navy blue and a boat neck together with linnen trousers. I'm knitting my second mingling daisies shawl for my sisters colleague and the houndstooth jacket is slowly progressing. I wish to go and see you at a yarn festival.. sometime. I have never been to Finland before and it's about time. Wasa is not far to go to with a ferry. Don't stress to much it sound like too much work. Be kind to yourself. ❤

    Lovely to share my Sunday morning with you again. Peony is my favourite flower as well, my Dad had two bushes in front of our door, both pale pink and they always bloomed for my birthday, beginning of June. I love both of your summer tops, I think I might just get knitting for our coming summer. My beloved husband passed just before our 58th anniversary. Crochet and knitting have been a sanity saver. Bless you both, relax with your family when all the rush is over.❤from Oz
