Marcia has been knitting

So, I'm still pretty rubbish at blogging so here's the only way I can work out to let you know that I've published new photos on our sosusie yarns projects page.

Have you been knitting with our yarns? We'd love to post pictures of what you've knitted so please send them in to us as sosusieyarns at googlemail.com - thanks!

Well Oiled Festival

It was a great day and Lauren rallied the troops perfectly - the ladies and men of the Stroud Green Knitting and Drinking Group (not correct title) did well serving teas, juices, scones and cakes as well as teaching several people to knit and make pompoms.

Two Festivals and gorgeous new wool

Hello all,

sosusie yarns will be at two festivals tomorrow, The Archways Market Feel Good Festival which is on from 10am to 5pm and the Well Oiled Festival which is on in Finsbury Park from 1pm to 8pm (though sosusie yarns will be packing up before that unfortunately as Susie has prior plans for the evening).

Marcia will be at Archway Market and sosusie yarns will be running knitting lessons for anyone interested. Susie will be at Finsbury and will be running knitting lessons as part of a bigger WI type craft stall entitled Crafternoon Tea where there will also be tea and cakes we hope.

Assuming the weather holds out both events should be really good fun, goodness only knows that they were last year!

In other news - our gorgeous Artesano superchunky order has arrived just in time for the festivals - hooray!

Making up

Aargh - I cannot get away with it anymore. I have several projects that are basically finished ie they're knitted and blocked and they just need sewing up. I will endeavour to get on with at least one today and post pics later.

In other news we've just taken delivery of some gorgeous new autumnal colours in the Manos Silk Blend - photos to follow and we've finally got our mitts on a beautiful superchunky yarn. We've been looking for a suitable one for a while now and at last we've found one - or rather Artesano has started to produce one. It's not out yet but is due to drop within the next week or so.
