This weekend I will be at Fibre East with my books and project bags, it's a lovely show with lots and lots to see and if you can make it there, you totally should!
I'm looking forward to seeing all the other stallholders and I've been planning/day-dreaming about what I want to see and buy, these are top of my list:
The Knitting Goddess is one of my best fibre friends and alongside her amazing hand dyed yarn she's got some gorgeous brand new project bags she'll be taking, I'm going to do my best to grab one.
I really want to pick up a skein (or two) of Kettle Yarn Co Islington DK to make my own, not-a-sample, wear-all-the-time version of my Seaward hat pattern for their brand new collection (more on that at a later date). I think I've narrowed it down to Marigold or Old Smoke.
I've been REALLY enjoying crochet recently and so I'm looking forward to seeing the amazing Jane Crowfoot. She has been patient and supportive of me asking total beginner questions while working on her Lily Pond blanket CAL and if there is one thing I have learned it's you can never have enough blankets-in-progress (I think I'm in double digits at this point). She is launching a new crochet Blanket called Persian Tiles and a new knitted fairisle cushion kit called Norwegian Wood, I'm excited to see them in real life!
Are you coming? What's on your wish list?
