I went as a child too, my father loved it, having been born by the sea in NE Scotland and liked to visit the pretty harbour. Yes I love the gorgeous colours of Senses lace-in the ball it looks one colour but then has lovely shades running through when made up. I've just bought another three colours!

I collect the antique beaded purses, mostly from the 19th and early 20th centuries, many of which come from Europe.<br /><br />I've added you to my circles, looking forward to learning more about you and the region where you are. <br /><br />Have a great day!<br />RitaRita C at Panoplyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17351306074493103021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598750844492990465.post-37162121208087564162014-09-02T13:33:25.131-07:002014-09-02T13:33:25.131-07:00Thank you Ellie-yes I think I have started somethi...Thank you Ellie-yes I think I have started something and I can't stop choosing gorgeous new wool!!<br />Alison xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06776307610869291302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4598750844492990465.post-80376259416380970962014-09-02T13:30:03.649-07:002014-09-02T13:30:03.649-07:00Hi Cally I am so pleased you like the scarves!

I can completely understand why your daughters both 'need' one!! I have two daughters too (as well as a son) and they both put in lots of requests for 'makes'. Enjoy your crocheting... I've been doing some too... inspired by your last post!! :) xChristine Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02326291682653876227noreply@blogger.com
