Lots of customers have been in the shop to buy some wool to knit while they watch Wimbledon. I use this excuse too but I find that I have a lot of reverse knitting to do as it gets more exciting.
We have a Rowan jacket in the shop at the moment and I had a sneaky try on, and really fell for it. It’s in the book COAST and uses Cotton Jeans yarn, there are lots of cables so I think it will be a long term project. I like knitting cables there’s always the impetus to do a bit more.
