hi everyone im still here just been very busy with DT stuff
hopefully will be able to share some  soon …
im nursing another cold and bad throat my son has given me the bug this time… good job i love him  lol …
not too bad but get tired very quickly anyway thought i would share some of my knitting with you that im doing of an evening
i haven’t  done fine lace work in years
the last time i knitted with yarn this fine was to knit a  babies  christening outfit and shawl ….
  never the less beautiful to work with it’s a Mohair kid silk yarn  so soft and delicate
im not sure if i will leave it as a scarf or join to make a  cowl will see once it’s finished  will be just right as a accessary for evening wear or just when days get a little chilly in summer
really enjoying doing it something  simple  only 2 rows to pattern 
im going to give this one to my Mum as a Mothers day gift ,  i think she will like it
i know she was over the moon with her cowl and wrist warmers that i finished in Aran for her last week
she couldn’t believe how cosy they were to wear  had to turn her heating down lol now i think that’s a result
anyway  i hope you have all had a lovely weekend
thank you for popping by
hugs linda xxx
