Do you love yarn?

So, the first of the year’s yarn fairs are almost upon us (well actually it’s Unravel this weekend but we don’t talk about that as I have applied 3 years in a row and never managed to get a place…?) Anyway, I’m going to be at the Knitting and Stitching Show at Olympia again this year with my lovely friend Charlotte helping me out – please come and see us on Stand E82 in the West Hall. We’re next to Michelle and Simon from The Loveliest Yarn Company so make sure you check them out too! If you mention this post I’ll give you an additional 10% off my already heavily discounted prices!!!

Fancy a day out in London?

I’m giving away 2 pairs of tickets, so if you’d like a chance to win them then please leave a comment below before Tuesday 20th February with your email address (don’t worry your email address will only be visible to me, and you will only be subscribed to the newsletter if you want to!). Then I will get my son to pick 2 winners at random next week.

(Please note that these tickets are not valid on Saturday)

After this I team up with my friend Deb from FindMeKnitting, and you can find us at the following events in 2018

Wonderwool Wales 28 & 29 April
Wool@J13 12 & 13 May
Yarningham 14 & 15 July
Fibre East 28 & 29 July
Yarnporium 2 & 3 November (not confirmed)
Nottingham yarn Expo – November dates to be confirmed

Hi all,

I have picked two names and have sent them an email. I will wait to hear from them. I have 2 reserve names also picked out so if I haven’t heard back from the first two by tomorrow I will let them know.

Thank you all for entering!

My wife would love this. I think she’d probably want to go with her friend though as I’m not sure I’d be much use at a yarn fair.
