Do you know I had such a lovely time on Yarn Shop Day the other weekend. I popped over to my friends at Black Sheep Wools and spent a happy few hours chatting and teaching some of the techniques used in Amigurumi. As usual I met some lovely, lovely people and was thrilled to share our joint love of all things crafty.
I have an exciting new design which I can soon reveal which I have created exclusively for Black Sheep Wools and I am happy to do so, because the welcome is always so fulsome and the customer service is excellent.
I shall be voting for them in this years British Knitting Awards. You can also vote for your favourite brands, shops, yarns, designers and oh….dare I mention it…..your favourite yarn related BLOG. (Hint, Hint) Don’t be put off if you can’t fill a nomination in for each category – you can just use ‘n/a’ instead. You could also win £200 of knitting goodies – so why not vote?
Black Sheep Wools have also posted a little video of Yarn Shop Day online, there is a sneak view of Stacey demonstrating arm knitting – really impressive stuff.
