I don’t often do this, but I’m having a day off in the “normal working week”.
I was dyeing all of Saturday afternoon and evening, in preparation for a fabulous Yarn Party in Glasgow yesterday. It was wonderful. Lots of friendly knitters, awesome German baking (must get the recipe for the Marble Cake), and interesting conversation. We just put the yarn on a table and everyone was able to browse, compare, discuss and consider in their own time. I’ve done three of these Yarn Parties now and they are always fun – I mean Yarn and Cake – what’s not to like?
If you live within driving distance of Edinburgh and would like me to bring the shop to your knitting group, please get in touch.

Does it matter that…
a) East Sussex is within driving distance only if one is a bit insane
b) my knitting group has approximately 1 member

Envious in East Sussex
p.s. I can bake some pretty mean cakes.
p.p.s I love the skein display in the righthand margin
Oh recipe for marble cake, will you be able to share it with us?
Yes Yarn and Cake, I guess you could add hand made pots and books and then it would be me heaven
In another context this weekend we were discussing days off for the self-employed. It is really important to make sure you get the balance right – after all that is one of the big benefits of being self employed, so that means not feeling you have to justify having a week day off – and indeed in saying no to work.
Hope you enjoyed your day.
Y’know, with direct flights from <edinburgh, Zürich can seem quite local …..;0)
I am a knitting group of one and you are most welcome to come up and “party” anytime!
It was a joy to have you around!!! I could give you the marble cake recipe, bu then I’d have to kill you….family recipe! However….coming soon to a shop near you….
Actually, I’m sure my ancestors would forgive me for passing it on if they saw my beautiful yarn!
