Above is a taster of my recent spinning activity! I've been a little crazy spinning over the last month or so, but no matter how fast I spin, I can't ever seem to build up any stock - not that I'm complaining - on the contrary I love to spin and so am very happy that my customers like to buy my yarns!
I started spinning like mad again today in time to restock before my big tour in September...

So here's the schedule for September - lots of woolly gatherings this month - it's time to swell those stashes before autumn sets in - think of those long evenings at home creating lovely luxuriously warm woollies for you and yours....
Starting with Thursday 4th (and each Thursday in September), between 10am and 1pm, we have the Woolscape Project workshop in the Visitor Centre at St Abbs where we are creating knit and crochet beasties, birds and plant life for our display at the St Abbs Wool Festival on the 25th October. Workshops cost £5 per person and all equipment and materials are provided - as are tea, coffee and cake....

The weather forecast isn't bad, so come and see what Berwick has to offer - there are some great cafes and a lovely brisk walk around the town walls will work up an appetite.
