Sandown Stitch and Craft

Lisa and i went for a little day out to the Stitch and Craft show at Sandown Racecourse again this year. Well, it's a yearly ritual now ;o)

I was nearly ever-so-good and didn't buy any wool but i did buy this yarn ;o)

It's made from the selvedge of t-shirt material that used to be destroyed but someone realised it's potential and turned it into yarn!
The black/peachy mix is to make a shopping bag for Lisa, the lilac is to make something for my bedroom, i'm not sure what yet, either storage box/basket things or maybe a little shower mat.


This lovely pink is to make hot pads for the kitchen and possibly a tea cosy :oD


When it's stretched open it's about an inch wide but it has a natural "curl" that make it thinner but bulkier.
I'm really looking forward to playing with it :oD
