Chat abound this week! Catching up is the order of the day. LJ
completed the marathon and her derriere is fine, thank you for
asking.


Yarn Shop Day is on Saturday and I am looking forward to diving
face first into The Countess' Tunnock's. That's not a euphemism;
she will have a tower of Tunnock's. If you can't come to
Manchester, why not check out what's happening in your area? If
you're abroad - stage your own Yarn Shop Day.


In Enablers' Corner, I invite you to be enabled to the ME box.
It's a monthly stationery subscription box. If you struggle to find
the right sort of cards, this could be the answer to your
stationery woes. It's £15 inclusive of postage and you can sign up
at martineellis.com between 1st and 7th of every month.


In Scottish yarn news, there's the Loch Ness Knit Fest, 29th Sep
- 2 Oct 2016. Also, get yourself to Pitlochry next weekend, 7th May
at the Atholl Palace Hotel. Dingwall Auction Mart hosts the
Highland Wool Fest on 21st May 2016.


I have some emails from lovely listeners. Props to Westy for
looking after his fans and producing funny videos by taking the
mickey out of himself.


I take a look at The Knitting Goddess' new yarn, Totally British
4ply. It's an 85% Wensleydale, 15% Shetland blend which is grown,
spun, processed and dyed in the UK. It's a great way to access
breed yarns with the added benefit of lovely hand dyed shades too.
I rather like it. It comes in at 400m/100g and retails at £18.50
per skein.


Finally I ask the question, "Is The It?" for the stash
accumulation.
