We’ve just time to put our feet up after a fantastic #yarndale2020. Thank you Yarndale team for all your hard work and enthusiasm and for a great programme of videos - I think we’ve watched them all!
Thanks too, to everyone who popped by the shop, liked our posts and posted comments. It made for a great weekend.
We really hope to see you all next year.
And if you fancy a pair of cosy Selborne Socks there are just 2 kits left!
