Craft4Crafters stand 88
I met some amazing and lovely people and was introduced to some new crafts, or extensions of current ones. I met Ingrid Wagner and saw some extreme knitting. I would love to do this, if only to make a rug for my baby brother's van.
I also met up with Sara from Sara's texture crafts. It was great to see both Sara and Darren again. The stall looked amazing, and Sara was again selling some amazing fibres. Her dyeing has started up again, and I have to admit to being a fan of her colour ways and fibres, they are such a dream to spin or felt with. I missed attending her workshop, which was a shame as attendees came away excited and full of enthusiasm for the craft.
So I have exciting news. I am swapping my little yellow car for a van! This is huge for the business as it means I can attend events further afield, and take more stock with me, which has to be good for all my customers! I have definitely got a stand at Yarndale, and I'm waiting to hear about Woolfest.
I'm entering some yarn and a finished item into our guild choice for the national exhibition that's to be held in Norwich later this year. I am thinking of submitting a bag too, that I've recently completed. I love being part of the guild as it challenges me to push forward and advance my skills all the time.
The exhibition Yarns in the cathedral is being held in Norwich from 15 May until 1st June 2014.
