Saturday 27th September

Yarndale, I am so glad I went, is was a truly tiring but woolly filled day.
Firstly it started when I caught the train to Leeds and then a bus to Shipley and then a train to Skipton, all was going well until I decided to follow to ladies who I thought were going to the same place....well they were going to place mentioned in Attic24's blog, Coopers Cafe.
So I thought it must be on the way, but after I walked into Skipton itself I knew for certain I was in the wrong direction, which I may add was also wrong as I stopped to ask a CPSO where Yarndale is being held, and she had sent me further into Skipton. So it wasn't all my fault, My phone could not get signal as I would of used google maps!

Anyway after the lovely lady at the Skipton Tourist information gave me a map and recommended I walk along the canal path, off I set...I needed to hurry as I had pre-booked a workshop that started at 10am, all I can say is the Yarndale path with all the crochet lampposts etc is not a short walk!!
anyway here are some pics












 
This is me at my Workshop when I finally got there, I was only 10 mins late and not the only one.
 

Here is what I was making, a basket/bag, still need to finish it off




 SHEEP!


If you look closely you may see Lucy from Attic 24, she seemed very nice but always had people waiting to speak to her, I hope she managed to get a break!

Too pink?

Here is my update on my blanket,
 I haven't had much time with my Eldest being in hospital with Meningitis for 16 days, Life has been somewhat on hold except work, which I did have a few days off but I still need to earn pennies.
(This is taking longer than I remembered)
But he is out now, just gonna try and get him enrolled in college now!

Missing my cats :0(

Bella
 
 
Tango

 
No recent ones of Lily as she is always out when I go round!
 
But looking forward to going to Yarndale next weekend.
I hope to take lots of photos to show you all.

Granny stripe

Well I decided against doing this blanket as a ripple, I chose to change to doing a Granny stripe which is another design by Lucy @ Attic24
So here is my colours, also the first few stripes.
