I lost my dad almost 3 years ago at 94. You expect it but it doesn't make it easier on your heart. May all the happy memories carry you through this time. Lovely cardigan! Yay for finishing items! you deserve a cast on or 2 ... or 3 ... or a dozen!! xx

Luvin the matching spectacles and jumper/sweater. Looking quite smart whilst still fabulous in the first take. Lovely new fibres as well. Take care🤗
Ha! If in doubt, have a rainbow seems to be my motto! Thanks and take good care xx
Sending you so much love- and ‘permission’ to cast on as much as you’d like, guilt free. No guilt either if the yarn fumes ignite anti-decluttering behaviour at the yarn fest! Squish all the cozy yarns & know so many of us podcast viewers are sending you gentle hugs 💖xx

Your Magpie tendencies turned out lovely! You're so clever with how you put colours together, and can adapt a pattern to be exactly what you want.
Have fun at the yarn festival next week! I'm powerless to resist the effects of yarn fumes. Looking forward to seeing what follows you home.

Thank you for showing up, all my warmest wishes in this difficult time. I also need to declutter, so after completing a poncho from stash, I went and bought yarn for a pattern I fell in love with on Instagram 😂. But I’ve also started knitting a rug from cotton yarn from my stash. So, on balance, that might work.
Many good wishes for next week, take care xx
Thanks Nadine. One finish equals two starts, right?
Enjoy your crafting. Thanks and take care xx

Usually silent, but enthusiastic listener sends you and yours all the best thoughts and wishes for the time to come. Tears and laughter, yes, definitely! I lost both parents a few years ago and when sorting the house I found out that they had stored all the paintings I had made as long as I lived at home. Being the only one of us lot of siblings who is completely inept at drawing it was nice to have a look at my acomplishments and find out, yep, the grace of time also didn't help. Still, I love my parents to have kept my "treasures". All the best to you!
Thanks so much - that's a great memory. My Mum was a great one for keeping those kind of "treasures" - I don't think Dad will have done, but that's okay - we have a lot of great memories. Thanks and take care xx
Wishing you all the time and space and support to figure out living in this new world where your dad is not physically with you. Rest lots, drink water, go slowly, and take good care. harpingJanet
Thanks Janet.
Much appreciated.
Hope all is well with you xx

Himself has fantastic taste in yarn. I haven’t seen a single skein that he bought for you that didn’t make me want to reach into the screen to touch it.

Rosários4 yarn has come a long way for the basic utilitarian type is was maybe 10 years ago. Very nice items Himself chose for you!! Sending you warm hugs ❤
That's interesting , I bought some in Madeira about 10 years ago - 100% cotton. I am very pleased with the softness of this yarn.

I couldn’t knit for a month after I lost my Mum. It came back so it’s natural to slow down a bit. Keep knitting! 😊thinking of you …
Thank you - I can understand that. I do feel as though I'm operating at about half speed at the moment - but cutting myself some slack.
Thanks and take care xx
@@NotQuiteEnoughYarn I find I’m so tired at the moment 6 months later. Grief affects us differently so take one day at a time!
You need to take your own advice on board, to look after yourself and take care.
Hope all goes well next week. Enjoy yourself at Unravel among the "yarn fumes". xxx
Thanks Dorothy - I've been resting and sleeping as needed. Hope all is well with youxx
