Second May knitting retreat - final day
On Friday we spent the day trying to finish off projects for the show and tell.
It has been a week of hats and reverse knitting (= unravelling!) But everyone has managed to produce a lovely mix of work.
Our two American guests have been working in crochet all week, Karen has made pan scrubs
