Rheged knit and stitch | Smallholding in Suburbia
https://willofibres.wordpress.com/2015/04/16/rheged-knit-and-stitch/comment-page-1
Life growing veg, selling exotic fibre, hand dyed wool and anything else that happens. Rheged knit and stitch. On Sunday we had an early morning trip along the A66 to Penrith to attend Rheged’s knit and stitch show. We did this show in September last year and had a great time. This is our stall with a great view behind. We’d opted for a double stall this time and I’m very glad we did. Sales were a little slow to start with, but then they ticked over very nicely for the rest of the day. On Linden and Kyros.

Life growing veg, selling exotic fibre, hand dyed wool and anything else that happens. Monthly Archives: May 2015. Needle Felting and Solar Dyeing. Last Saturday I went over to Otley to the Wharfdale Wool event, this time as a visitor to attend a needle felting course, it was only 2 hours long, but this is what I managed to make. A thin grey seal, it was great fun and I will probably have a go again, but I don’t think it will become my number 1 hobby any time soon. Thursday night was spent with friends a...

Life growing veg, selling exotic fibre, hand dyed wool and anything else that happens. Working on the veg plot. Last week I’ve been able to spend some time working in the veg garden, all the beds are now filled. The early potatoes are coming along nicely, though a spot of rain wouldn’t go amiss at the moment to put some growth on the new potatoes. The Sweetcorn is inter planted with 3 squash plants, as they are supposed to grow well together. Newer posts →. 4 Weekends and 4 shows/events. The first show w...

Life growing veg, selling exotic fibre, hand dyed wool and anything else that happens. Fibre East 2015 with youngest hobbit. Here he is wrapped up warmly, after a Chinese take away, on Joan’s camp bed. But that night when we went to check on youngest hobbit’s tent, it had turned into an indoor swimming pool, so he spent the night sleeping in the back of the van, at least he was warm and dry, if a little cramped.
