Tis the season to be cold...

Last Saturday I helped Anne at a craft market in Hereford.

It was cold, I was well wrapped up - two neckwarmers, two pairs of fingerless mittens, and we wont go there with how many other layers I had on...

And yes that is the Clanger hat made by Ruth that I was told never to wear again - I couldn't find another hat...




I managed to finish the set of spirals for a friend just before we got to the restaurant for lunch :-)

And they fitted and she loved them.

Yesterday the leg warmers went to their new owner and she was very impressed and confused that everyone else knew she was getting them !!






And I thought my house was cold - but these are some windows in Hereford - snow inside !!


I'm off to the Isle of Wight tomorrow at some silly hour of the morning for a, hopefully, relaxed holiday...
I hope everyone has a peaceful holiday and that the seasonal fairy brings you lots of yarny goodness

Down an Alley Way



There is a Small Gallery

The delightful Anne runs it and made a brilliant sign for the door in the cold weather..

In the last few weeks I have been disturbing her a lot !











This is no gallery really put a haven of woolly goodness ...

I cant remember all that is sold but I dont think there is any acrylic to be seen - wool, silk, alpaca, nettle...







For a small space it is crammed full of stock









And there is also a display of under garments - made by a group in Worcester

And can you see who was making herself known on the counter ?









apparently these all started off as bras

and were then decorated...










So if you are down in Hereford, take yourself off to Church Street (it's near the cathedral !)

From High Town go down the alley by the side of M&S..

Then there is another smaller alley down the side of the cheese shop...

But dont go on Monday's as it is Anne's day of rest ;-)






























These are my favorite - cups & saucers !!
