And the show begins......

Yesterday saw the doors open to the Knitting & Stitching show 2013. The Black Sheep show team were raring to go with the stand fully stocked, complete with the pretty bunting.

In the evening it was time for the British Knitting Awards presentation. I may have mentioned once or twice before we won 'Best Knitting Blog' (yay!) and 'Best Independent Store - North of England'. Here is Sara with Emma from Sirdar and Ian from Designer Yarns.

This morning Mike was making friends with two ladies from Canada and Nashville. They sure have made quite a journey to visit the show!

It looked pretty busy at the yarn dive today. Lots of rummaging and un-earthing treasures I imagine.


DAY2


If you are going to the show be sure to say hello to the team on stand C16!
