Now many of you will know that I was off to York on a very mini holiday earlier this week. What a success! Pretty scenery, yarn, buttons, Pad Thai, and plenty of knitty chat.

And next we get into some yarny business in Ramshambles. I HAD to buy some yarn. Really, I was forced. This expression is actually full of terror if you examine closely.

All in all an excellent mini break finished off by a few hours knitting in this charming cafe.

Looks like a fun trip to York. :) I was there many years ago (1986 I think...whatever year Andrew and Fergie got married) but still remember so vividly walking down The Shambles. Beautiful city. Sadly I didn't get the chance to go wandering round yummy wool shops at that age! Luckily I can make up for that now and have made a note for myself to visit Ginger Twist Studio next time we're into the Town. Found your site through the Yarn Pony blog and so pleased to find another (relatively) local place. Livi is hopeless for this kind of shop!
ReplyDeleteHiya Louise, glad to hear you related to the blog post. And yes, you should most definitely plan a yarny trip to Edinburgh! :)
