On today's show my minimalist quest has turned to thinking about my wardrobe. I've also got some news about the next season of The Shawl Society, coming up very soon! My major WIP--aside from the super-secret shawls-to-be--has been Like a Cloud, and I'm flying through it! Show Sponsors: Alongside an eclectic yarn range, which includes Hazel Knits, Icelandic Lopi & CoopKnits, we stock a carefully chosen selection of needles and notions. We’ve also recently launched ‘hand dyed by meadowyarn’, our very own in-house, hand-dyed yarn range. Working in our tiny dye studio, nestled in the Suffolk countryside, we are able to indulge our love of colour, producing complex tonal, kettle-dyed shades across a range of weights and bases. With regular updates our collections evolve and grow, inspired by the landscape and people around us. AYS is a wool boutique specializing in hand dyed yarns and luxury fibres from around the world. You’ll always find a well curated collection of yarns and colors on the shelves and a friendly knowledgeable staff on hand. Some of our favorite brands include Hedgehog Fibres, SweetGeorgia Yarn, Julie Asselin, Shibui Knits and The Fibre Co. You can find A Yarn Story on Walcot Street in Bath or online at www.ayarnstory.co.uk Announcements: Maker’s Market, Bath We are having a Maker’s Market as part of the Curious Handmade Bath Retreat, and you’re all invited! Joji Locatelli will be signing copies of her Interpretations book, A Yarn Story will be bringing some beautiful Shibui yarn stock, and individual makers will bring their own gorgeous creations to sell as well, including kits, project bags, hand-dyed yarn, and lovely accessories. We’ll be serving tea and coffee and it will be a nice time to get together and enjoy the company of other knitters, stitchers, and makers. Location: Bailbrook House Hotel, Bath, UK Date: Wednesday, 9th of May from 3 to 5pm £5 Entry. You can purchase a ticket on the door (cash only) or in advance from this link! We’d love to see you there, so please do drop by if you’re in the area for a cuppa and a bit of knitting! Show Links: Yarn Fictions Use Less YouTube The Anna Edit YouTube The Impressionist MKAL is still running until the end of May, and our FO thread is bursting with fabulous shawls. (Spoiler alert!) You still have plenty of time to post your own finished object in the thread to be in for a chance to win a wonderful prize. Many knitters have easily knit each clue in a week, so if you haven’t joined and want to hop in now, you still have time! The final reveal of the complete Impressionists Shawl is on Tuesday May 8th and you won’t need to worry about spoiler alerts on Instagram anymore.
