Thank you to everyone who came to the Open Studio on Sunday, it was lovely to see so many of you.

If you don't receive my newsletter you may not have seen I'm having a sale of some bases to give me less yarn to move! These aren't going forever (I'm really not getting rid of Flockly!) but I need to have slightly fewer bases for a short while. Check out the section on the website for moving sale and save yourself 20% on the usual price. Thank you 😊

Come and visit the studio in World's End before i move out at the end of the month. Lots of yarn, lots of cake and some special offers for you. Open tomorrow between 10.40am and 4pm

This Sunday really is the last chance to visit the current studio. Come and share some tea and cake and browse the yarn.

I've got something a little different for the Open Studio this Sunday 🧶

These are some test skeins I've dyed that are exclusively available at the Open Studio. They're a bit of a lucky dip as the exact fibre blend is unknown and they are in a mix of weights, but that's part of the fun!

These will not be listed individually online after the Open Studio on Sunday and as no two are the same once they're gone they're gone!

Join me Sunday 13th September, 10.30am to 4pm. Drop in any time for tea, cake and yarn! 🍰

Have you ever come home from a yarn show having forgotten something you really wanted, or blown your budget in the first 10 mins? 😅

I've written a blog post over on Yarn Adventure all about how to plan a yarn show visit to make the most of your day - whether you are heading off to Stafford Wool Gathering in October or any other show this autumn.

Do take a look and let me know your top show tips 🧶

Are you a written instructions knitter who secretly wishes you could read charts? This tip is for you. Swipe through for my favourite way to build chart confidence.
