Fragrant green tea and fruit toast for an unhurried breakfast on the back step.
A thoughtful and generous package from the lovely Bells. I recently won a contest to celebrate the anniversary of Bells’s wonderful blog, and was lucky enough to receive a perfect little project bag made by her own fair hands (I love the fabric combination), and a skein of the most swoon-worthy yarn from Knitabulous. It is the 50/50 silk and wool blend 4 ply in Summer pudding, a lovely subtle rhubarby red. What a glorious shawl this will make – maybe this one … Thanks so much, Bells!
Shells collected from the seaside on the weekend by my boy. I love how he marvelled over each one, no matter how imperfect, noticing the colours or sheen.

I seriously love that wonder – those moments when kids turn things over in their hands and can’t see the imperfections – just the beautiful bits – or the fact that it’s available and nobody else got there first. score!
And lucky you – what a beautiful package.

This lovely lady sent me a ball of yarn that I was short of while making a new pattern design. The cost was free from her to me and also done in the most generous way.
So many times we hear of the ‘bad’ things that people do, but dont always give the credit to the ‘good’ things that are done too. So here is a shout of Horrah for a ‘good’ person who gave me this yarn and did not ask for a thing not even the postage!
Thank you once again Pinry you are a star.
my best regards Lynadell
