And finally…
The most popular sock club yarn EVER.
Wheelie Bin!
So popular that there was an almost unanimous request that it be added to the shop colours, and while I don’t have the recipe any more, I’m going to try and recreate it this week.
Two people even brought their leftovers so I could bring some home to match… I like a challenge!

I can totally see why Victorian ladies used to do tatting, it makes you hold your hands so elegantly!
My word, weren’t we industrious! I can remember whose hands some of those were, and mine even appear twice. I didn’t get the chance to try spindling, though (may have been something to do with the crochet and tatting?) and look forward to meeting up again with learning to use a spindle a priority.
Wonderful to see all those hands at work.
And I’m glad Katie solved the mystery — it is tatting (except I still don’t know what that is… off to Google it.)
Oh, maybe it is like knyppling?
Except tatting looks more like freestyle
I’ve spotted my hands!
Amazing how many people I can recognise by either their hands or what they were knitting.
I actually like these pictures better than faces. There is some kind of otherliness and peace about them. Great idea, N.
Yay! The return of Wheelie Bin…I have been admiring it for what seems like an age! Such lovely pictures of all the clever hands at work
