I think you can search both ways, from Scots to English and vice versa.

Thos lovely colours are a great reminder than the world doesn’t always come in shades of drippy grey. That yarn is tantalising…

Extremely OT, but your use of the word dreich made me think of something else not at all knitting related. I’ve been learning some old folk songs which use many Scots words. Do you have a recommendation for a book or source for getting accurate translations? So far I’ve been getting by with google but I’d love something more reliable. (I was historian trained – and have a theory looking things up in books is a bit like comfort food for my brain).

p.s. 37 degrees where I live in south of australia today. no dreich in sight!
