It's so lovely to see some Spring weather at last. I'm enjoying knitting some lighter weight shawls and cotton tops along with more socks of course (you can never have too many socks!)
For any readers who are not local and are interested in the shop, I have begun a daily photo journal of images from the shop across the Clyde. Feel free to take a peek at my view!
