I LOVE IT!!

Day 238 - A Beautiful Handmade Gift from LilyLovesLola - Look at this beautiful scarf that Victoria over at lilyloveslola hand knitted for me.  Victoria took a knitting course at the beginning of the year and posted THIS pic of her finished scarf and I instantly wanted to get my hands on one.  I absolutely love the mustard colour and  I  was very  touched when she offered to knit one for me (I still can't get over how incredibly sweet this girl is!).

I picked up my parcel from the post office this morning and was delighted to discover that it was the scarf.  I also thought the little bow wrapped around it was very cute and inside the scarf was also a very sweet little note, that made me laugh (thanks Victoria).  The wool is so chunky and warm, and I was actually delighted that the weather was crappy enough to wear it today :-) So here I am donning said scarf.  Isn't it beautiful!! I can't wait for the colder months so that I can wear it to death!!  Please check out Victoria's blog HERE, you won't be disappointing.

I'm off to Chedder/Bath/Bristol this weekend in my dad's Campervan so stay tuned for some pics.  I can't wait!

Keep Smiling
