August didn't half go quickly, did it?! September is our busiest month, what with collection release, Yarn in the City (this Sat), and Yarndale...  This yarn is all for Yarndale.. And it's not the half of it..       Talking of Yarndale, a couple of things -  1. We'll be on stand 11.. it's along the long wall, nearest to the knit & natter lounge, and we're behind Texere.  2.

Morning (or not)! Just a quick update on the latest ECY update... I'm currently busy dyeing like mad for Yarndale, but have prepared a lovely selection of yarns and colours for the website first.

On Saturday we had an afternoon out at Bolton Abbey with our friends. It was incredibly busy, so we crossed the river and went for a walk along the other side where it was quiet and peaceful. If you haven't been I heavily recommend it; Bolton Abbey lies just off the A59 in the heart of Yorkshire, so is easy to get to and is set amongst the most beautiful and expansive landscape.
