Mardee! It's a deal. If we plan a trip I will be sure to let you know. I have just completed 4 hats in fair isle from their Wool Week Buggiflooer pattern (available from the wool week website).
Sounds great, Jacqui! You really must be a knitter! I get the patterns, too, and keep sending them to my daughter as she is the knitter, but so far she hasn't taken the hint. 🙄
Mardee--so you're a (rug) hooker, too! I love all things fiber-related, but my always-have-something-going crafts are primitive rug hooking (24" x 38" pictorial rug on my floor frame) and knitting (various scarves, a sweater and the elusive 2nd sock that's been waiting nearly 10 years to join its mate.
christa, maybe we should make our Shetland trip a group event! Yes, I mostly sew (lots of apparel and bags, the occasional quilt, etc.) but do love rug hooking. I wish I could knit but get too distracted to make anything worthwhile. I've knitted a few scarves and when I showed one to my cousin, who is an avid knitter, she looked at it for a minute and then asked, "Did you mean for it to look like that?" 🤣🤣🤣 Point taken. No more knitting for me!
I must have been having a bad day when I put 25th and 29th as I know better than to put 'st' and 'th' on the end.
Stuart, looks like American English is rubbing off on you, lol!!!
