Well it's snowing down here in Cornwall as it

is across most of  the UK. In this country we

tend to come to a grinding halt when a couple

of flakes hit the ground. But as you can see

from these pictures, my kids have lovedit.

Their schools all closed for the day and they

stayed at home making snowballs and snowmen

with carrot noses until their hands were so cold

they had to come indoors and thaw out by the fire.

That's James at the back with Lucy to the right

and little Lily right in the thick of things as usual.

 

 

All this snow is a bit weird considering I am right

in the thick of designing summer knits! It's hard

to get into the mood when all you want to do is

huddle by the fire and hibernate. I am not sure

whether it's the lack of light thing but I am finding

it hard to dig myself out of a warm bed in the

morning. Time for Spring I think.

Can't wait to see a few daffodils poking up their

heads. They are such a cheerful hopeful flower and

one of my favourites.

 

 

Am feeling all behind with deadlines. The family was

hit with the dreaded tummy bug last week and Jeff,

Lucy and Lily were the only ones still standing.

James and Emily copped it worse and me...

well, lets say I am still feeling a little fragile.

Spending this week catching up. Piles of making up

and pattern writing to do but it's all part of the fun.

Speak soon
