Two years down and ready for the next one.

Well, our second birthday came and went. It's been a tough year both personally and in terms of the business. Things have picked up since we went back to alternate Saturdays and we're certainly both enjoying ourselves more again now we're back to working the stall together. We also had to say bye to one of our lovely and most loyal of customers, Chiharu, who went back to Japan. Chiharu would visit us every week and would help out now and again, it's really weird not seeing her.

Both Marcia and myself have had some pretty big challenges to face and it is nice to let our hair down (so to speak as neither of us really has the kind of hair you imagine when you think about letting your hair down) and hang out at the market especially as the weather hots up and the sun begins to shine.

Here's a picture of our rather excellent Royal/Team GB bunting for which we used Brigantia Luxury Aran.
Marcia knitted all the triangles (I only managed two and a half in the time she did about 40!?) and I darned in all the ends and put the bunting together. We've tried to produce bunting before but I've not been happy with the colour selection but this works incredibly well.
