GRANNY WINNER


If you look just behind the second picture of the white cushion there is a tantalising glimpse of this divine Granny Square Blanket. It was made by Sue who helps with our crochet classes and makes beautiful things. If you look closely you can see there is a texture to the stitching, it is not just a plain granny square. The wool is King Cole anti tickle merino dk. We began to stock this a while ago as we liked the colour palette and it has turned out to be a crochet winner.

It is very exciting in the shop just now, lots of new stock and customers all twitching to start knitting again.

More pictures soon...

CROCHET FEAST

 I know I have mentioned the talents of our crochet group before. We didn't meet in August so when we got together last night the delights that everyone had to show were breathtaking.
I don't need to say much more, look and feel inspired.......





 


There was one knitted object, this cute rabbit, waiting for a blanket to be finished then sent to Aberdeen to her new baby owner.
You have no idea how hard it is to get these photos with no hands in the way stroking and fondling the work but that's what crochet is for.
Looking forward to next month already.
