It's almost time! I'm so excited! If you haven't registered, head over to Indie Untangled to do so. It all kicks off tomorrow, Friday 19th March, 2021 at 9am EDT/1pm GMT/2pm CET. There are Afternoon Tea chats on each of the days as well as Virtual Shopping Sessions (via Zoom). You can even book in a private shopping appointment if there's that something special you're looking for or you need a little helping hand with colour combinations for a particular project. You'll find me on Sunday's Afternoon Tea with the Makers. You might also find me joining in with the games, if...

January Wanderlust Yarn Club I'm serious! I know it's almost the end of the longest month of the year. But somehow, between moving into my dye space, working on and submitting tax returns and having all of the offspring at home, I forgot to list the Mystery Yarn Club for January! I do apologies. It's now on the website, where it shall remain for another week, after which I will be making sure your orders go out within the first week of Februrary.The inspiration for this colourway comes from a beautiful piece of African wax cloth that was part of a set...
