    Dangle clusters got renamed instantly to dingleberries in my head.

      Ha! They are dangle berries in this house - and my mind went in the same direction xx

      Thanks Louise - it's one of the few handspuns that I don't have lined up for a project at the moment! Hope you are well and have fully recovered from your trip. Take care xx

    OMG Les,
    You and Bev need to take your "show" on the road!!! What a grand family you have!!! I LOVE the humorous interaction you have with Bev!! She is a HOOT!
    CONGRATS on 6k..... I am soooo excited for you!!! You deserve many thousands more!!
    I was happy to see Ms Heidi turn around. Now while her little behind is very cute and adorable, her sweet face is so much cuter!!!

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Sharon. It was fun to have Bev here. Next week it will be all about Heidi's face, as I recorded her climbing on me! Hope you are well and good luck in the draw xx

    Lesley, I love the striped scarf! It's gorgeous. Not sure I'd have the patience to cast on 350 stitches. Thanks for another enjoyable podcast. Enjoy your Jack in the Green festivities!

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Sandy. The only advantage of 350 stitches is not having to do many rows! Certainly, it had to be a mindless knit - something that long growing slowly wouldn't have got made.
      Hope all is well with you. Thanks and take care xx

    The lady who created the pattern with the dangle clusters- I can giggle at her thought of what to call them 😊The shawl is very pretty.

    Hi Lesley. Eventually got around to watching. Home from a fab
    wonderwool weekend. Met lots of lovely people. Saw lots of lovely inspirational wonderwool. Came home with a couple of tunisian crochet hooks. (Fancy having a go). Mr Attic bought my birthday present from Wee County Yarns. Will have to wait a few weeks to see what he chose. Their stand was stunning.
    I love seeing all the handspun projects. I rather liked the muddy one that's going into your ranunculus. Super long scarf is also a favourite.
    See you on Friday for the vlog. I may have recovered. I always suffer after a weekend away, but
    It's worth it.
    Have a good week. Xx

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Angela. Glad you had a show - your stand looked great on Instagram xx
      Enjoy your purchases and hope the recovery is smooth and quick.
      Take very good care xx

    You're hilarious when you say "there is a possibility that I may run out of yarn" I love to see what you add in together. Th fluffy cardigan is looking great and I'm looking forwad to seeing it finished and maybe knitting my own. Stay safe and keep well x

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn

      I would actually get bored if I didn't run out of yarn!

    I like your little green and blue shawl. Hope your health is better in May. My health news: it's over a year since my surgery so I had a colonoscopy (camera through Scarlett). No cancer. Yay! Take care, Les. ❤

    I love the colours you've chosen for the Exploration Station. Another pattern I own but have yet to knit. The little crochet shawlette is beautiful and perfect as a present 👍
    Hope the May festivities go well. My parents were there one year and really enjoyed one of the parades xx

    So happy that this month you devoted some time to hand spun! I actually got to Wonderwool and it was absolutely fantastic! I even attended a drop spindle wool school workshop! I am totally inspired to master hand spinning! I’m not sure I shall ever be able to go again so I savored every moment and might have made a few purchases 🤔 If you ever get the chance, please try and go because we know you “ might not have quite enough wool” Take care and thank you for a very entertaining video x

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yay! Glad you managed to get there and enjoyed it so much. Good luck with the hand spinning and enjoy your purchases.
      One day...

    Oh Madam a dangle cluster. Imagine Kenneth Williams voice! 😅
    We so have a similar mind set.
    Love the red floof jacket. I think it might be to posh for dog walking. I have some 1980's mohair. No idea as yet what it is destined to be. It's still deciding after the shock of not being turned into a 1980's shoulder padded masterpiece.
    Of to Skegness next week. We are going to Butlins for the first time. Basically it was £59 from Monday to Friday! So why not.
    Ever been to that part of our island, so keen to take a wander. Plenty of time to do a bit of knitting during the journey. I'm learning to listen to my hand and taking breaks and stopping, mid row if I have to, when I know I should.
    Can you believe it's May already! Be December before we know it.
    Very proud Nanna news. My 11, going on 20, year old granddaughter is crocheting herself a blanket, holding two DK weights. A white and all my scraps, odd balls etc.
    Really so very proud of her.
    She started with a single crochet and now doubles (US terminology, blame TH-cam. I didn't realise for a long time there was a difference).
    Oh love the new scarf and the dangle cluster shawl. I had to say it again!😂
    Have a fabulous May. xxJane 🐑🌼

      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Jane. Dangle Clusters - ooh matron! Yay to your Granddaughter crocheting - not suprised you're proud of her, that's great.
      Enjoy Skeggy - I've never been either, hope you have a great time and are able to craft and rest in suitable measure.
      Thanks so much and take good care xx

    Hi Lesley, another month gone 😮😂! I knitted the Arctic Light jumper, the weather being what it is (with lots of cables and what not, a delight for fighting memory loss), I’m finishing another one from what is surely by now a vintage pattern from a book I bought in my younger years, I’m still working on my cotton rug, and only need 20 more cm (over 130cm … imagine the number of stitches on 3mm needles)The garden is filling up nicely with rosebuds that are ignoring the foul weather. Hope you have a nice month of May! Take care xx

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi Nadine.
      I had a look at that pattern - a beautiful item, and you are definitely a better person than me!
      But judging by the fact that you are making a rug on 3mm needles, your knitting style is much more patient than mine.
      Enjoy the roses and let's hope there is sun for them.
      Thanks, as always and take care xx

    • @NadineTouzet

      @@NotQuiteEnoughYarn The rug is a basic garter stitch project meant to make a huge dent in my stash of cotton balls. The dent is laughable ☹️. I envy your skills. Cheers xxx

    I so enjoy your podcasts! You r very uplifting. I have wanted to knit lace and was given a Hank of Nellie and Eve Dales 50:50. It is so pretty but a tad rough. I saw your silk cowl previously and was inspired to knit a lace cowl combining the N&E with another softer wool blend. It is working up so nicely! Thank you for all the handwork you present.

    • @NotQuiteEnoughYarn
      @NotQuiteEnoughYarn  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Cathy.
      I am so glad that the yarn combination is working. And you are inspiring me, as I have some not so soft silk, and you are convincing me to combine it with something else to use it. Thanks and take care xx

    How could you not knit something with dangle clusters. You are a very prolofic knitter/crocheter but still the stash doesn't go down. Oh well, it's not from lack of trying. I'm off to Wonderwool tomorrow. I'm in that dangerous position where I don't need anything. 🙄
