I resolve to pull up my blogging socks (not hand knitted - the daughters claim all of those) and update more regularly as the next round of Secret Pal has finally got started.
We have just returned from a lovely week in Anglesey. We were all there. Mr M and myself, Both daughters and their menfolk and Millie. We spent time on various beaches
and visited Foel Farm Park which we were all very impressed with.
It was my birthday while we were away and we spent the day in Beaumaris. I had hoped we could all take a boat trip to Puffin Island but it was too windy so we had ice creams in the Red Boat Ice cream parlour (highly recommended.)An evening meal at The Ship in Red Wharf Bay began a week long love affair with that little place. I loved Moelfre where I found this tiny but very friendly Wool Shop.
On the way home we stopped of at Abakhan What a wonderful place! I bought some Twilleys Organic cotton at half price with which I have started knitting Ravenscar from Rowan 45. It is really soft and is knitting up nicely. I also bought a length of cotton fabric to make a skirt for just over £2.00. We then went into Chester which is really beautiful. I haven't ever been there before.
I did very little knitting while I was away being too busy playing word games and drinking wine and too dozy after days in the fresh Welsh air.
