Well, it all went exceedingly well at the Rag Market, despite the in-two-minds-about-it-all look on my face in the picture above. Lots of great stalls to browse, lots of friendly people around and lots of tea and cake. Not a bad way to spend Sunday afternoon. When can we do it again?

In other news, I'd have liked to put in a link to the Woodland Trust's site encouraging knitters to knit native bluebells, but blogger's not up for that tonight. Anyway, woodlandtrust.org is where it's at. Try to ignore the slightly gynaecological look to the knitted bluebell. It's a cute idea and if I wasn't up to my eyes in knitting flowers for the yarn bombing, I'd give it a go. I might visit some woods tho', just to show willing.

This n' that



Seems to be a lot of illness and general medical problems among the Three Bags Full knitters and their loved ones at the moment, so here's hoping everyone affected gets well very soon. Take care, all of you!

A couple of exciting bits of news...well, exciting for me anyway, and Mike, who's taken about six hundred pictures recently without complaining once. Even when I made him late for the cricket... Anyway, we're hoping that by the end of May the new Three Bags Full website and online shop will be operational - yay! Still inputting at present, but as soon as everything's on we can go live. Have returned to my setting-up-shop state of extreme worry, stress and sleeplessness coupled with I-can't-wait. Will post the address a bit nearer the date.

The other thing we're looking forward to is the Rag Market at Bradshaw Church in Halifax on 22nd May. This'll be the first time we've done anything like this so it'll be very interesting and a learning experience, I'm sure - which generally means a great chance to make loads of mistakes, but hey, it should be fun. Come along!
