Hello from a newbie.

Welcome Vonnie I have been around since the beginning and I am a nightowl, often on here at 1am.
I used to knit anything and eveything but handknits were not wanted for GC so stopped a few years ago. I think the last thing I made was a blanket which went to uni with DS, knitted in squares from yarn used on his jumpers as a tot.

Hello Vonnie - welcome to Gransnet. I am another one who has been around since the beginning - I'm sure you'll enjoy yourself. I, too, knit - it's particularly good now I have grandchildren - just about to start an angel top which I last knitted for my daughter (now 33) when she was a baby.

Hi Vonnie welcome. we have plenty of [cakes] and lost of "virtual parties" (some of the grans do!..... get out of hand at these parties)! you will soon become familiar with the culprits lol

Welcome Vonnie, nice to see another caravanner. We divide our holidays with our caravan between Cornwall and Scotland most of the time.

Hello Vonnie , enjoy yourself here

Good morning Vonnie and welcome. I'm a knitting nanna albeit a cack handed one.

Hi vonnie join us for a drink in Lils bar,bring your knitting,there are a couple of grandads that need long johns and mufflers for the winter...ps should warn you gramps and Lil are an item...

Hello Vonnie, welcome to Gransnet, I don't get on here as much as I would like because I work fulltime etc but all the gransnetters have been very informative and helpful when I have had problems to share.

I am just embarking on knitting a shawl....a very basic pattern, so might be calling on your expertise when I get stuck lol. I used to knit for my boys when they were little, (again very basic stuff) I had my Mum then to put me right, but hardly do any now Like Annika said, they seem to dress differently know, and when I suggested I knit a little jacket for my recently born GS my DIL said she didn't like knitted things!

Thank you so much for all the warm welcomes.
What a friendly bunch you are.

Hallo Vonnie. I am a relative newcomer to Gransnet and I don't post very often but everyone is very friendly and kind. I also love in Cornwall, in the SE part. Moved here over 30 years ago and I love it, it is such a beautiful county.

Ok, I live in Cornwall, but I love it too!

Welcome Vonnie, I am a knitter too!

I just look for nits?

Sorry, but my link doesn`t seem to be working.

I will try again.

Hooray!! It works.

Vonnie welcome! Sadly I am not a knitter - I do try but unsuccessfully - still on the jumper I was knitting for GS1 when he was born; he is now 8 so that just about sums it up. As you see, we are a friendly lot and no doubt we will meet on other threads

Good morning, Vonnie! I'm one of the early birds, at least sometimes.
