Despite the diabolical weather forecasts earlier in the week, despite the fact that I didn’t publicise the event enough, despite the fact that life completely ran away from (with?) me in the last 3 days leading up to it, we had a WONDERFUL afternoon on Saturday. The sun was JUST warm enough not to scorch anyone, Mo had mobilised some keen-to-knit friends and Eve had spotted us on the WWKip site where I had managed to log the event just in time…phew! Everyone ooh-ed and aah-ed over the gorgeous Fyberspates yarns (thank you Jen!) that I had managed to secure just in time and I convinced some knitters to give bamboo needles a go. We even had some passers-by sit down with us and knit a couple of rows, just for the sheer fun of it. Which is EXACTLY what WWKiP is all about. So it won’t surprise you to know that I’ve already told the local papers that there will be another WWKiP in Grayshott next June…hurray! In the meantime, locals to Grayshott are all invited to come and knit with us every Monday evening between 7 and 9 at the Fox & Pelican. All agea and knitting abilities welcome, no need to join or make any form of commitment, just turn up with a smile and some change for a drink. For those of you further afield, please watch this space…I will be adding my wares for sale soon! And thank you to all who made my day on Saturday….
p.s. As soon as I’ve worked out how to upload it, I will add a picture from Saturday.
