    Not quite enough time to knit all the lovely yarn is what sprang to mind. Take care and blessings!

    Yes - where did March go🙀 Thankyou for checking in and letting us know that things are bearable. Spring equinox makes my days a bit more pleasant, since summer is not so far away. Take care 🌷🧶🍃

    Yes Lesley! Where did March go? It’s always such a busy time sorting out stuff when a loved one passes away. All your new yarn acquisitions will keep you busy when you get those hats on the go! Enjoy time with your friends and take care until next time x hugs to Heidi x

    Push away, dear friend! This time of year is difficult for me, and I tend to isolate, which for someone who worked in the mental health field, I know is not the best course of action! 🥴
    You are the best medicine for this old gal and thank you for always putting a smile on my face and sharing a bit of yourself!! Sending warm hugs and much love from me and mine to you and yours!! See you Friday!! 🤗🤗🤗

    Have a lovely weekend. X

    Yay for a sweaters quantity of Shhhh! It’s a yarn I hope to try at some point, although now that have brought yarn home to Ireland that I had as a stash in the US, there is really no space for more in the cottage! Rug, throw, and shawl crocheting has started with a vengeance 😂 and hopefully by Autumn more yarn space will be made- cuz I’ve still a bit more yarn there at my Dad’s that should probably come home… so like you I’m currently unable to say “not quite enough yarn!” Just Not Quite Enough Space 🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶🧶

    I saw the Shhhh yarn in Black Sheep Wools on Monday and it's gorgeous!
    I got given some gorgeous cotton yarn with small schlubs in it and some mohair mix - a fluffy red with a gold thread running through it and I have no idea what kind of things I can crochet with it. Any suggestions would be very helpful! My friend wants a top of some kind with the mohair.

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  5 місяців тому +1

      Hi Ian - those yarns sound fab! Obviously, it depends on the weight - but with the mohair it sounds as though you want the yarn to shine, so something simple like the comfort tee might be a good idea (never made it, but it looks good): www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/comfort-tee The Roxy Poncho www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/the-roxy-poncho-sweater is also good and very adaptable. - I added sleeves to mine and made the neckline a little smaller so it stayed on better.
      Enjoy your new yarns and thanks, as always xx
