Unravel

Hello!
I can hardly believe that it's just over a week since Unravel (and two months since I last posted. Ooooops!)

If you've never been, Unravel is held at Farnham Maltings, and is very friendly and fun. The Maltings gets decorated yarnbombed (I loved the knitted moles in their molehills on the front lawn, keeping the live sheep company), and the festival of wool has been growing each year.

Last year, I admired Seren Stacey's "A Bumble of Bees" exhibit. This year, the sparkleduck stall was in that very spot!

We shared the Tannery with 6 other exhibitors - Eliza Conway, IT, Jeanette Sloan, Mary Kilvert (who designed the fabulous Unravel bags), Namolio, and the OneHandKnits and The Undercover Owl duo.

It was lovely to meet lots of new people and old friends over the weekend.
A little ducky parcel hatched into these two cuties:

The keyring-torch quacks, and I spent the remainder of the weekend wandering around lighting up and quacking... Thank you, EveE!

This little chap formed a cunning plan to keep me quiet on Sunday by kicking the skein of yarn that his mother was winding into a nice tangle on the floor.

As some of you may know, I quite like untangling things, so I spent the morning cheerfully chatting to visitors through a skein of yarn... then these appeared to say 'thank you!' (the fourth, a lemon tart, escaped with Wrigglefingers who helped me when I started flagging at lunchtime)
