Grannielines: A whopper of a week!

Who says knitting is a dyeing craft...Check out this little number for G1. It was a bit fiddly to do the pockets, 'cos I couldn't see how they were meant to come together, but they worked out in the end. The yarn is 85% wool, 10% acrylic, and 5% viscose, so it should wash well. G1 has just gone home;- he looked really cool in it with the zip up front.

He packed a few adventures into his few days with us;- catching crabs under rocks when the tide was out; rolling his way along the sand at Cowes front beach; feeding wallabies and talking to cockatoos at the park, as well as toasting marshmallows in the fire after dinner. We earned our evening relaxation and glass of wine with Katie!... and yes it is quiet when we are alone again!

Rhyll beach is a boating not a swimming place. But it is an acceptable crab and play area...

He even manages a visit to Grannie Margaret every couple of weeks, where he enjoys "riding" up and down the hallway on her walking stick... A sight worth seeing, I imagine.

Last weekend we had Ali, Phil and G2. Here are a few pics of that too...
