Well, what a fantastic show #unravelfestival2020 was. We had such a brilliant but exhausting time.
A huge thank you to the staff at Farnham Maltings, to all our fantastic customers and also to the ever obliging @textilegarden for bringing in extra stock for us.
I have a very meagre but special haul. Some beautiful merino and mohair, a gift from @thedanishdyelot and some ChiaoGoo needles (I may need to persevere with these). The undyed base is a new yarn to try for socks from @woollychic I’m still hunting for the perfect nylon free sock yarn.

I’ve finished my birthday #pheasantpullover jus

I’ve finished my birthday #pheasantpullover just in time for @unravelfestival starting this Friday. We are so excited. I’ll probably wear it all three days - you can tell I’m pleased with it, so I hope the Barley Room doesn’t get too hot. It was only when Louise took a shot of me wearing it that I noticed the dip in my shoulder. The result of a broken collar bone, not a death grip on the needles during colourwork, honest!

I don’t want to speak too soon but I think I’ve finished labelling all the yarn for @unravelfestival
I think I have, unless there’s a box I’ve missed.
Hmmm! 🤔
Anyway the yarn on the right is another new colour, Tallis this time on BFL Sock.

The Concorde mitten pattern is up on Ravelry and I’m feeling slightly smug as I think I managed to load it right first time (I really do need some Ravelry lessons). The Perkins photo is just because he’s lovely.

Lamentation - when you can’t read your own handwriting and add the wrong dye.
A mistake but I like it so it’ll be coming with us to @unravelfestival with just over a week to go.

With two weeks to go to #unravelfestival there’s some desperate sample knitting going on.
#sirensongshawl by Libby Jonson made with Rhubarb Fool and Brinjal on our Merino & Silk base.
I must remember never to try knitting a slip stitch pattern in a hurry, it seemed to take for ever but it was truly worth it.
