Congratulations Sandra, from another first time gran!! Jac will be 3 in August and definitely granny's boy, even though he has another gran and stepgran so I'm chuffed. It will be cold in January - no harm in knitting, babies need lots of changes. I had kept the shawl my sister in law knitted for my daughter in 1970 and it was used for Jac. Enjoy - Christine xx |

No we don't have wool shop here...you're pushing it a bit aren't you!! LOL No the nearest one I know of is in Caol near FortWilliam...it's called 'togs' you'll get all sorts of buttons, zips etc there as well but I'm warning you now if you get clausterphobic try somewhere else coz it's only a wee shop but it's jam packed from floor to ceiling but reckon you'd get what you're looking for!!!! |

Lesley please, do you have to talk about me on every thread? This isn't about me. This is Polly's moment to shine. You can start a new thread about me. |

~~~~~~~~~waves to Polly~~~~~~~ Dan, I've already congratulated Polly (oops Granny Polly) - before you woke up. It is her time to shine so why the comments about you being a grandma first You had to be a grandma before her, didn't you? Start a thread about you, you'd just love that wouldn't you? |

Not yet, a week to go. But I did leave ICT I was sure to fail so maybe I've had a delayed reaction. |
