First Couple of Days of the October Holidays ...

Some of the Aamos Designs new styles & colours
 
I am lucky that I came home to Shetland joost in time to catch the end of wool week, I accompanied Emma & Aamos Designs to the a Makers Market at the Town Hall and we had a great time meeting other crafters and people who have travelled far and wide to see what Shetland has to offer.

Emma getting annoyed at my tension
 
The thing I enjoy the most though was spending the day with my sister, her crocheting and me starting to knit my tam & finishing off the squirrel gloves.

Squirrel glove no.2 the ribbed wrist part feels like it takes ages
but once da fairisle starts you are flying
 
Emma's Granny Squares, by the evening she had joined 5 or 6 of them with a purple,
 it looks amazing may have to commission a peice from her.
 
Emma has a couple of new pieces since I wis last along the studios and they are gorgeous... I am a little biased though.
Aamos Designs Overshot Scarf she is going to make blankets like this

I didn't buy much besides coffee and a cupcake but I did get a new pattern by Outi Kater (same lady who made the tam pattern) for Christmas presents but I'm keeping dat one a secret for now.

On sunday I was feeling a little out of sorts but I did manage to finish the
ribbing on my tam, I'm liking the colours so far
