Me and my knitting pal Romain had a super day at Wonderwool Wales.
There were of course, sheep and goats.
Rainbows of yarn wherever you looked.
A beautiful crochet blanket on the Easy Knits stall.
An absolutely stunning shawl on the Jamiesons stall.We wandered and squished and oooed and ahhhaaad.
Would you like to see what I bought?
2 balls of Jamieson and Smith 4ply.
An unexpected amount of sock yarn namely;
5 mini sock skeins. Stripy socks coming up!
2 skeins of hand dyed sock yarn.
2 patterns from Purl Alpaca.
A pattern for Gathering Raindrops by Belinda Harris-Reid, a holey poncho, Dorne Rising Shawl ~ a crochet shawl and a pattern book by Marie Wallin called Winter Crochet. I particularly liked the jumper on the cover which combines crochet and knitting.
We had a lovely yarny day and, of course, I fell asleep on the bus coming home, something Romain is used to.
After some lovely spring sunshine we are now forecast coldness again. *Sigh*.
I hope you have a super week, however warm it is where you are.
See you soon ..................Clicky Needles.
Looks like a fun day out and lots of delightful woolly mementoes to keep you busy. Lucky lady! Falling asleep on the bus home - that would be me too! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to go to Wonderwool, it sounds like such a great event. I love your yarn choices, especially the darker coloured Weaver's Loft, that's so pretty. Glad you had a good day.
ReplyDeleteWow, that looks like a wonderful event. Lovely yarn and patterns too. I like the mini sock skeins.
ReplyDeleteHope the sun comes back soon for you!
What a great time you must have had at that show! I like all your purchases. I'm working on a lap blanket for myself having just finished a corner-2-corner shawl! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely! So glad you got to go to the event, and that you found some treasures to bring home to fuel your stitching :) If April showers bring May flowers we should have enough flowers to supply the world! Happy Spring! xx
