My knitting is currently going at snails pace as we tend to leave the windows open and the curtains open, as its been so warm, sitting in the virtual dark, to stop the gnats coming in for a bite. I can't see a blessed thing!Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05166927011486659586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36845137.post-55575604442897712902014-07-25T21:50:29.122+01:002014-07-25T21:50:29.122+01:00What a wonderful, wonderful holiday!!!

I head straight for JoAnn's every time I visit family in the States, and believe me I am capable of stuffing *tons* of goodies from there in my suitcase, much like you have here! So fun, so fab...I've just ordered some Tunisian hooks and a book, it's time I give it a go! The best part of this post, aside from the mojito/jacuzzi combo, is the meeting of the woman in the aisle. How incredible that she's made your designs, and you just happen upon each other in JoAnn's? Life is grand that way...Chrissie xxxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16148016735714521048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36845137.post-72768103119938444552014-07-24T19:47:47.303+01:002014-07-24T19:47:47.303+01:00Wow, Joann's looks brilliant.

At least next time you know, all you need is a couple of weeks in Florida. Glad you're home safely.
