The chaos behind the scenes of a Zoom shopping session. Yarn EVERYWHERE 🤣

Thanks to everyone who “visited” us at Waltham Abbey Wool Show online today. And huge thanks to Diana and Kate for organising it. There’s lots still to enjoy on the program @walthamabbeywool - hope you have a lovely day! 🧶♥️

Waltham Abbey Wool Show - Sale ✨

It has been so lovely chatting to people in our Zoom shop this morning! We’re on until 12, so there’s still plenty of time to join us. 🤗

In true yarn show tradition, we have popped some skeins on sale - you can find them in the sale section of our website. Some savvy shoppers have already taken advantage of the 15% discount, but there is at least one skein of each of these colourways in stock (at the time of posting)! 🧶♥️

We’ve just arrived at the studio to set up for Waltham Abbey Show Online! 🙌

We’re looking forward to seeing some faces other than our own 😄 from 9-12 on Zoom. We’ll be hanging out in our studio shop with all our yarn - including these soft shades of Chimera. Markus picked these out to show you a subtle colour combo. They definitely play nicely together! 🌸🌿

Are you ready for another combo from Markus? 🧶🎨

I could have picked this one myself... GREEN! 💚 Even Cairn in the middle has a little bit of lichen-y green in it, like an old stone wall.

The yarn is Nene DK, 100% (non-superwash) Bluefaced Leicester wool, and it is soft like you wouldn’t believe! It’s a good weight for this time of year, especially if you find yourself in need of a quick hat or mitten project. 🌨

I asked Markus to put some yarn combos together and photograph them, and it has been so interesting to see what colours stand out to someone else! 😍

This is Aysgarth, a beautiful fuzzy and lustrous 100% Wensleydale wool. I’ve been reaching for the greens and teals, but Markus went straight for the warmest end of the spectrum and countered it with a bright silver. These would work well in a colourwork project, or as big bold blocks... hmm, well that’s got me thinking! 🤔

Just a little reminder that we’ll be at Waltham Abbey Wool Show online tomorrow, in the company of many fine yarny folk! 🧶♥️
