Crafty in the Med

I am here to enjoy meeting other bloggers and to share my love of craft ,mostly crochet, my thoughts and my daily happenings here in Alicante,Spain, my adopted country. I belong to a local choir because singing and music makes me happy. Flea markets and book shops are two of my favourite places to be. I read lots......sci´fi/fantasy,buried treasure, and off world adventures. I have a passion for history! I walk and walk and walk for about 10 months per year during the hot months I swim.

Big Thank you!!!!

A very short post just to say:

a big thank you for the massive response to my last post  related to blogging etiquette.
 All advice,suggestions and  opinions have very much helped to clarify my doubts.

As the question of followers and number of followers has been mentioned frequently in the comments received, I would just like to add that although I respect other bloggers points of view I shall continue to prefer being able to see the number of followers I have on my list.I find this extremely motivating and inspiring. In my case there is no economical reason why I wish to have followers but pure selfishness. I feel it is like knitting a tiny community together and it produces great satisfaction to think that there are some people out there who read my posts and who wish to comment on them and likewise offer the same. I shall continue to wish for a reciprocal contact and as stated on my last post I shall always prefer quality over quantity.

Its me!
This is me...a few light years ago...you didn't really think I was going to parade a recent photo of me on here did you?

    What a cutie pie, and was that a hand knitted cardigan? I know just what you mean about the sense of a little community, and am really enjoying getting to know people and looking forward to their posts :) xx

      Totally agree with you where back and white pics are concerned I much prefer them mainly for places. Glad I got it fixed and thanks for your advice.

    I always had knitted cardigans too! I had a navy one which was my favourite - I virtually had to be forced out of it every evening as I would have worn it to bed if I could! Have a great weekend!
