    Interesting comment about the coasters retaining heat. I think I will re-knit my heating pad cover with cotton. The acrylic one doesn't allow the heat through as well and now I think I know why!

    Hiya Sheila luv , it’s so exciting when you receive happy mail , I get excited with u how kind and generous your knitting ladies are , the wool you got and the wool Kate sent are lovely colours can’t wait to see what you knit with it . I’m just about to start to sew up the cardigan that I have finished finally hope I can sew it up neatly , a lot depends how bad my hands shaking as might av to leave it till on a good day , not sure how or where I will get some more wool think will av to use knit well by post as can do that out of a catalog as hopeless with internet , but it’s fine just need to find an easy pattern as the one I just used I couldn’t understand it very well , 😂 I’m missing my son who as just been up from London to fix all the garden fence for me so was with me a few days it’s been great , except I miss him now he’s gone home , ah well will concentrate on getting the cardy finished , happy knitting Jean 💕💕😘

      i get a lot of Happy Mail from a lot of nice people Jean Kate is one of them, hope you get some good days to sew up your cardigan, Marriners is a good site for wool and very reasonable prices, you need to play around with the internet to find out how it works it's easier than you think, if i lived near i would help you out, some patterns are very easy and again some are too complicated even i find trouble with them sometimes..

    Hi Sheila
    I just got rid of my flowers, they were wilting. You have green fingers.
    Regarding the wool that you and Kate got unknowingly, they say "great minds think alike"
    I can't wait to see what you are going to make.
    Keep up the good work.

    Hi Sheila what a lovely happy mail from Kate very thoughtful and I do know how much you enjoy knitting 🧶 with the beaches wool and how kind of Derick to order you wool . There is certainly some kindhearted people out there. Gosh you are going to be busy lol . The blanket and booties are really gorgeous a little coat will just finish the gift off. . There is no chance of you running out of orders your fame is spreading. You could do with another pair of hands ahah. I hope now it just gone six that you are now settling down with the needles and of course a cuppa. Your flowers still look lovely. Well off to pick up my needles. Happy knitting 🧶 lol Sandra xxx

      Hello Sandra i have just finished my tea and my cuppa and have picked up the Zings, back to Dagry's top now, i loved knitting the blanket took no time at all with the pokers, and best of all no sewing up, and your right i just wish i had another pair of hands, only problem with my fame spreading more orders far to many, we will both be clacking away now that's what my husband Alan used to say, think he had super hearing cause i couldn't hear the clacking lol..

    Sheila, I love the blanket pattern. I started one of my own with 8 mm needles and two strands of yarn. I did have to use a smaller number in my cast on, but it is working up so quickly. Thanks again for the inspiration. I love your channel.
