Bought myself a treat in a second hand book shop. It is very much a wartime edition, full of make do and mend, and a whole chapter in knitting for the forces. Lets see if I can find a follow on pattern to Up To Your Neck. #VintagePatterns

Signs that Ewe&Pky have been eating Tunnocks teacakes again…

We’ve a delivery of hand turned wooden darning mushrooms and darning discs (we call ’em Darning Darlings). Aren’t they beautiful? Darned useful as well ;)

E&P have a great fondness for the brilliant music of The Washboard Resonators. Anyone in the Oswestry area is throughly recommended to join us, cis we’ll be going to this. #LiveMusic #1930sMusic

There is all lot happening here in Ewe&Ply. Heaps of workshops of all varieties! Booking is via our website www.eweandply.co.uk - stick “workshops” into the search bar, that’s the easy way :)

And this is where our yarns gets dyed. Behold, the Ewe&Ply Dye Works in The Dolydd, Llanfyllin. The only 19th century workhouse still accessible to the public in the UK.

A pan full of what will become Kinky Fisher on our corriedale-mohair 4ply base. It feels good to be back in the Dye Works after a hiatus of about a month! #HandDyedYarn #EweAndPlyCorrieMo

Who would like to knit socks with Ewe & Ply? Our next Joy of Sox workshop runs on 26th in Artisan Lab shop upstairs in The Parade Shops, Shrewsbury, UK. The sock shown was knitted in our hand dyed LegEnds BFL sock yarn, colourway - All My Best Crayons #LearnToKnit #SockWorkshop #HandDyedYarn

Sunshine! Such a lovely day, a perfect day in fact, for visiting all your lovely little local shops. And if one if those happens to be a yarn shop, well it would be rude not to… #ShopLocal #LoveYourLYS

Tunisian Crochet progress. Doesn’t look like much, but that is because I had to rip it back to nothingness because it would have been 4” too big. TC gauge is something else!

I should be putting away a delivery of West Yorkshire Spinners yarns. What I am doing is using WYS Colour Lab to fool around with Tunisian crochet in the round. It’s still work though, right? #OopsICastOnAgain

Good morning. We're new round here, what's happening in the BlueSky world of #knitting and #wool?
