a great big thank you to everyone that came and said hello last weekend at Wonderwool Wales. it was great to meet you and good to see familiar faces too.

i had such fun whilst demonstrating peg loom weaving, thanks for the great comments and feedback and have had lots of interest in the courses i am running, they are being booked up fast.

please have a look on my website for more details if you are interested in attending a course on 'how to weave on a peg loom' or 'learn how to crochet'

...happy st David's

...day
living in beautiful Wales the 1st March is a special day! Children dress in traditional costume at school and daffodils are literally everywhere.

It's a happy time...a simple way to celebrate both a patron saint and the coming of spring

Hurray
