Yarn Shopping


Needed yarn badly today, so it was off to my local market. I love buying my yarn from there as it’s nice and thick, without being expensive - £1.50 a ball. Though I did buy 8 balls and it cost me £12. I don’t usually buy that much at a time and the lady at the stall asked what on earth I needed all that yarn for!

I need it partly for a new pattern I bought from Roxycraft (http://roxycraft.com/pattern_shop.htm) the other day. I bought ‘Chilly’ - he’s so cute!! I’ve bought patterns from there before and they’re always really clear and well presented. So that’s what I need a lot of the yarn for.

I’m also working on a new range of Eggberts - Baby Eggbert Keyrings! They’re about 5 cm’s tall including the hair, and attached to a 4’’ ball chain. I’ve made about 5 so far; I hope to have them up on my Etsy shop some time over the weekend. Or early next week knowing me!
