MRS MOON BLOG

Uknited Nations

January 14, 2010

We had a great inaugural knit-in today. Susan provided home made millionaire's shortbread and we had a small but select group of Mrs Moon friends knitting and chatting away... Our group hailed from Australia, USA, Richmond and St Margarets, so very cosmopolitan. Admittedly I don't think they made the trip specially, but it made us feel loved... There were great projects on show.. Fiona and Monica were showing us all how it should be done , Robyn was picking up where she left off years ago and Vanessa managed to finish her second project with real success. All in all a great first knit-in.. thank you to everyone who came... looking forward to many more.

Happy New Year

January 08, 2010

Well, the pom poms have come down from the window, so Christmas must be over. We had a lovely first Christmas and met lots of new people in the shop so we hope you'll all come back and see us again soon. Lots of exciting things coming up which you'll read about in our long-awaited first newsletter, but most importantly, we're going to start opening on Mondays from the 11th January. We hope this makes us more convenient for you and means less wasted journeys. We were really excited to receive delivery of Tante Sophie's beautiful individual patterns yesterday (see www.tantesophie.com). I'm already half way through the Mocha scarf which uses a skein of Blue Sky brushed suri... it's very soft and fluffy!! Just what you need when it's so cold outside. Our programme of lessons is beginning in the next couple of weeks, with Fiona Brooker teaching beginners knitting classes and Lydia Bates teaching creative sewing.... details to follow shortly. Hope you've got enough yarn to knit something snuggly over the weekend... see you soon...
