Hola!
Inspired by a lady I met last night who was regretting the seeming death of the knitting blog, I have decided to begin one of my own. I will, of course, write about all my other passions and activities, like books, the theatre, music etc, but knitting is the main thrust :)
So, here is a little about me:
I am a writer and general arts enthusiast and have always enjoyed making things - especially gifts for friends and family.
My journey as a knitter began on the 20th December 2009, when I walked into Liberty's of London and bought myself two balls of yarn, a set of needles and a Learn to Knit book with the intention of making a tea cosy.
A little over five months laterm my projects are in double figures and I am totally hooked. It's such an addictive hobby and I've also discovered that knitting is a fabulous way to meet new and interesting people. I am a people enthusiast too!
Well, that's enough for post #1, I think....
Hi Sarah-Lou. Welcome to the knitting blog world! I would like to know what Liberty's is like, since I haven't been there but have heard it is good for yarn.
ReplyDeleteYes, Liberty's is great and really not that expensive. They specialise in block colours though they do have a few variegated yarns, too, and they stock lots of different kinds.
ReplyDeleteI also find it one of the easiest yarn shops to navigate and it has a great tea shop!
