MAKE DO & KNIT!





Firstly i would like to apologise for being a terrible blogger! Really need to try harder! so, new year's resolution (although it's also a bit late for that too), we will try, try and spring clean this blog......
so what have we been up to?
Well I would like to tell you about our weekend: we had an absolutely marvellous time at the "make do & knit" weekender http://www.makedoandknit.com/, the first of it's kind and organised by the lovely Susan Crawford knitwear designer and co-author of "A Stitch in Time", please, please can we have more events like this in Liverpool! It was great, perfect for all those who love knitting, sewing, making, crafting, vintage or all of the above! We especially enjoyed chatting to a lovely lady on the stall next to us from Brimstone buttons who knew everything you could ever want to know about the history of buttons. There was also lots and lots of lovely yarn to drool over and the knitted poem was unravelled (it's massive!) Here are some photos from the weekend (by the way - the letter G was knitted by Sarah from the Purlesque knitting circle!)

bye, bye for now
