Knitty Gritty!

You will see that I have started to post 'Knitty Places' to visit. Unfortunately I am a little bit of a 'yarn snob' as my husband calls me!! Having worked for Rowan Yarns as a Design Consultant in the past, based on our local John Lewis, I do love to work with natural fibres - hence the Rowan link. More recently on 2007 I opened my own shop selling luxurious knitting yarns and accessories, but when the lease came up for renewal in March 2013, as Spike was very poorly (undiagnosed with his Melanoma), I decided to let the lease lapse as could not concentrate and spend time needed on the business as well as care for him and my very elderly parents!  It was a great shame, and to this day I really miss my customers who would frequent the shop for knitting advice, workshops and knitting groups. However our knitting group does still meet regularly on a Friday from 12.30 ish in the library in Bungay Suffolk.  If any of you wish to join us, please feel free to pop along - we are a very jolly group! 

Back to knitting - I love the Drops Design site as well, great yarns for those on a budget and loads of free downloadable patterns - take a look!
