This month KnitBritish is a big 1 year old!
It is also almost Christmas, a time of giving presents!
To celebrate this – and the fact that for the last year I have been celebrating British wool and having great fun exploring the wealth of fibre this country has to offer, with you, dear reader….I am going to give away…..
How was everyone’s Wool Week?
I have just visited randomresults.com to draw the winner of the wonderful Made By Ewe knitted sheep kit!
Shetland Wool Week is drawing to a close. For most people it’s been a week of masterclasses and workshops, schmoozing with knitting heroes, learning from the masters and catching up with friends (old and new). That is if, unlike me, you booked tickets in time.
Having played about with washable yarns recently I felt the need to get a bit sheepy and went stash-diving for a breed specific yarn.
Just a very quick post to tell you that Made by Ewe have a new website. You may remember Linda was over here at KnitBritish a wee while ago talking about her beautiful 100% British Wool kits. Her new shop site is up and running and to celebrate she has something special for you! Check out her blog!
Even though I have never particularly enjoyed the creeping darkness at this time of year – from long, light Shetland summer evenings to unending darkness in winter – I do love the colours that surround us in autumn
Linda from Made by Ewe got in touch recently to tell me all about her adventures in local fibre and as soon as I saw her delightful kits I knew that I had to ask her over to KnitBritish for a little visit.
Last week I had a really enjoyable couple of days at the In the Loop 3.5 Conference here in Shetland. I didn’t manage the whole thing, and I am not going to abstract the whole thing (I believe there will be a special edition on Textiles next year, which will do that for you), but I really wanted to share with you one or two of the stand out speakers.
