Yarn shops in Bath Spa and the West Country
We've been talking about where to shop locally for yarn - so here's a wee list of yarn stockists in Bath Spa and its surrounding area. It's undoubtedly not comprehensive; please email me with details of ones I've missed! ------------------------------------------- Bath Spa and immediate area (ce...
Delighted that you like this book too - I've been smitten with K Jamie's work after discovering her this summer. I've just bought her latest work - the first book of poems that I've owned! We used to live in Edinburgh but she inspired us to visit farther north - we've booked to go to Orkney next year...cannae wait! :0)

The next Stitch’n’Bitch Tuesday meeting will be in a couple of weeks - on the 5th June in the Crystal Palace pub at 7pm. http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/12/12067/Crystal_Palace_Tavern/Bath

Hope you’re settling into Bath well!
Bye for now

And they say knitting is for relaxation...
Not that you'd know, from listening to me knit: the ranting and raving with fury as I gather up all those dropped stitches and rip inches off my needles (At the last S'n'B meeting I ripped 5 inches of carefully knitted smoke-ring scarf (garrrrh!) Wine please!). But it surely serves other funct...
