GREETINGS FROM LIVERPOOL

Greetings from Liverpool.

Wow, it has been awhile since I last wrote my blog, but as some of you are aware, my partner and I have been on the road traveling since September 2016 and have finally made our way over to the UK. We have just under four months left of our trip to go before we have to head back to our home in Brisbane.

The countries we have visited so far have been as follows:

New Zealand
Singapore
Malaysia
Thailand
Hong Kong
Japan
India
Greece
Italy
Switzerland
Germany
UK

We have had so much fun so far exploring other parts of the world that are foreign to us, both in language and culture.

Have visited numerous yarn stores on my travels, but am now super excited as am now able to visit some wonderful yarn stores here in the UK. In fact, we plan to head to Manchester for the day on Friday and I am definitely going to visit Countess Ablaze and make a few purchases for sure. Whilst in Bath a few weeks back, I was able to purchase my first ever Hedgehog Fibres yarn from a wonderful store called A Yarn Story.

During my travels, I have held 5 successful Woolswap’s and am happy to report that this business is growing steadily each time.

Have knitted numerous pairs of socks, started a Find Your Fade Shawl and a Featherweight Cardigan.

Here is a picture of myself and partner Dean when we did the Magical Mystery Beatles Bus Tour the other day. After all, Liverpool is the home of the Beatles and we could not miss going on this tour.

Until next time happy knitting and crocheting.
