COLDSPRING
I got these two cones. Colours are pink, yellow, blue and white.
Then I got these two hanks to make into a jumper for me.
Finally I bought a few odd balls which appealed to me:
THE SKEP
I bought these two balls of Sirdar Blur with the intention of doing a scarf for a friend's grandmother. The needles I was playing with it with on the Saturday night were too small so will be redoing with proper size needles.
I then also got this skein of yarn with the intentions of another jumper for me :)
KNITTING & CROCHET GUILD
I got this cone of ?3ply
along with this blue skein of a similar weightage
and couldn't resist this of Fiddlesticks (seems to be a running theme here!)
I had to break the trend though with these three books. Unfortunately I upset one of the group with the Wild Knitting purchase as they had had their eye on it already. I only bought it because one of the woman from my local group had made the armadillo wrap which features in teh book so wanted to get it so I could show her the book. Unfortunately I found out at the group Tuesday night that she had borrowed the book from another lady of the group :(
And this ball of Tofutsies just happened to fall in my bag. I thought it quite heavy at £12 a ball but then when I read the ball band it is 100g ball rather than the 50g I was thinking. KCG Trading at the moment seem to be the only UK outlet I am aware of selling this yarn so depending how I take to it depends how well I'll be adding to their profits.
WINGHAM WOOL WORK
This was the only stop of the day for Sunday. I wasn't expecting to spend that much because they are predominantly a fibre merchant but they turned out to be the most expensive stop. I bought these Surina items, two different ended crochet hooks and some double pointeds.
I got this fibre to play with Mabel as I liked the look of the colourway:
Then I got four skeins of Sari silk. I grabbed these because it is the first time that I have seen it in plain colours rather than the kaleidoscope versions that are normally available.
Finally, I got this large skein of green yarn. I bought a couple last year on SN and have still yet to use them so I will definitely have more than enough this year. Unless of course I go off off green - hmmmm not too likely methinks!
