New Camera

I have a new camera(another one as my last new camera was drenched while taking photos of a rough sea and waves coming over the wall)
just a couple of photos one just messing :-

and then two of a young man who came into the shop a bought a sock kit just a few weeks ago and came in to show me them:-

arn't they amazing......

I have taken lots of photos when a went to Germany and Knit Camp in Stirling.

When I learn how to download them from my camera (i have spent ages- maybe reading the instructions will help)I will show you them.

I had a great time at both places and met such nice people.

Helens Sock

having been off the planet - I am back

Well, after a few months of trying to get my life on track, I thought I had better let you know that I am still here.
Woolfish is still here after long deliberations - shall we keep going? yes? No?
For the moment it is a yes.!!!!!!
I was in a quandry about where to live - should I stay in the house I am in? Yes? No?
For the moment yes!!!!
It is soooo handy as a venue for knitting retreats and the knitting group.
At the end of the day nothing has changed, except both Trudi and I have renewed zeal for the shop and all things woolly.
The retreats are still going ahead in September and November.
The St Abbs Woolfestivals are still going ahead at the end of August and in November.

Our New Lanark Cones are proving a big hit especially with this free patern.

We had an amazing time at Wonderwool and at Woolfest.

Thankyou to all those who came up and said Hi.

And the constant supply of ice-cream (for my sore throat)
