Wool Boat visiting again today at Marple,3rd boat along (in the distance!). Colin and Carol should be back from the Peak Forest Canal by August so hope to meet up again at Baileys Trading Post possibly a bit of an 'event' in the pipeline!

I've sent this image to a possible new outlet to show some of the upcycled stuff and other interior bits and bobs.I thought it all looked really nice together in the sun!

Heres my visit to the Wool Boat today at Baileys Trading Post on the Macclesfield Canal to meet Colin and Carol for the first time although we've e-mailed for some time now it was really nice to meet like-minded people.Loved the boat I want one! Thats me in the left hand bottom corner

Heres Tom our elderly moggie with a knack for finding a comfy spot! I've just received these beautiful peg loom rugs from Lana Norman produced from last year's Whitefaced Woodland fleeces from Arnside and the Black Welsh and Herdwick from Silverdale.I spread one out  under my rigid heddle loom to admire it,turned my back and found a cat had claimed it! So thats one rug that won't be sold (I wanted to keep one anyway!)

Nice cabled sweater

This design works well in cream or grey wool and also in unbleached cotton for less chilly weather

shawls

These shawls have been knitted and crochet in handspun wool from conservation grazer sheep in Arnside/Silverdale AONB

Wildlife around Morecambe Bay

Here's 2 pictures of birds for no reason other than that I like them.The tiny specks are geese over wintering and I was quite pleased that this seagull posed so well for me!
