This Week's Happenings...

What a scorcher this week has been!  I have just about been able to carry on crocheting Nigel The Nautilus for the summer window (should be out next week all being well!)but it was hard, hot work!  Even with cotton yarn which is normally fine, the temperature of 33 degrees meant the yarn was sticking to my fingers and taking much longer for those cute tentacles to work up.  But they are now done and he is ready to take his place in the window.  Sharon has been knitting and crochet-less for the beginning part of the week though, the heat stopping all yarny fun.  She did use the time wisely though, by reading knitting and crochet magazines for new ideas!

So not much happened this week, but to celebrate a return to knittable and crochetable temperatures we would like to host a mini giveaway!  The first person ringing  the shop after 10am on Tuesday (27th) who is able to tell us the names of 3 brands of yarn we stock in store will win 10 balls of a mystery cotton yarn!

That's all for now, have a lovely weekend and happy knitting!
