Anyone know ??

Thanx Ophelia, I didn't know that one, and I bet the Irish were the same, knitting those Aran sweater patterns that got handed down through the family, and now are widely available .. although there are some Aran patts that apparently are close family secret patterns..

Cher

A bit manky but it will get there thank you

Can see this one being done, bet the mice had a good time...lol cher

Must be cos they had long hair and kept getting it tangled up, over here we have a saying..''knit in a hair, never wear'' Cher

Oh that's interesting...thnx...Cher

well I can rank with the best of Dimwits and somewhere someone forgot to give me a degree in Dimwittedness..lol Cher

Thankyou to your mum, no wonder these words get altered when people like me, don't hear it correctly..lol Cher

What, you? Never!

Katherine

Well Scots men certainly used to knit. There are pics of them in various museums

thank you Els. This was not unique to the Dutch

Gem

Don't know why she wouldn't! My Grandparents' farm - now my cousin's - has a lovely fairy ring that we were *never* allowed to disturb. I always wanted to go and spend the night there to hear the music and maybe see the dance......

Eimear

Oh, yes! Wouldn't *that* be wonderful???

Katherine

It will take some time, but as long as it is getting better than it was before, you are doing well.

Els

Well Cher, since I have leprechan relations, you will never know, what kind of things I am up to. forget it kiddo, running away is not going to get you far enough away....LOL Els

We shall all have to go and tiptoe over and watch and see, I have garden fairies they painted all the wonderful flowers and leaves, and I know they are at work each evening now, repainting the tree leaves gold, everything will look so pretty again, until those naughty Elves find out and pluck them all off.. When the snow falls you can see the fairies sparkling on it when it is newly laid, even then the Elves can't leave them alone to play, but have to make it all muddy and horrid looking..

Cher

Thank you very much Els... I can use all you have:) My main problem just now is nausea. I have a bit of infection. The Consultant says it is ok, my Doc says no. So she gave me some oral antibiotics with which I have mega problems and now I am paying for it:(

big hugs back

love
