On Sunday I went along to the East Dartmoor Teashop Knitters annual knit event, Ktog4, held this year in Ashburton. I took along some of my books but I was mainly there to promote Give Fleece A Chance. Everyone I spoke to was really enthusiastic about the project and I gave away loads of patterns. During the afternoon, three sheep were made by members of the EDT knitters, so many thanks for those.
Sign up for GFAC here.
I took along two baskets full of local fleece that I sourced over the last two weeks as well as the sheep. There was a sign up sheet so I can start collecting email addresses of people who want to knit when I get some more yarn. The knitted cover over the table is from my book The Knitter’s Bible and is a variation on the traditional Grandmother’s Garden Square.
