the yarn thief part two

You may remember my story about the French company bergere and the terrible treatment they received by the online crafting community well I decided to use my points. I treat myself to a set of knit pro wave hooks which with the other came in at bargain of under  ten pounds. I was so excited to order then my points vanished I contacted the company angry that I was being treated lime this due to people's previous greed but thankfully the company emailed me and reset my points and the second time the order was a success. Less than a week  later they arrived and here they are.


 I love these hooks and feel really lucky to have a full set. You may remember a friend bought me one for my birthday last month and it was so good to UAE I knew I needed all of them

Since getting them I can comfortably crochet much longer and so have nearly finished my mother in law lap quilt so for now will love you and leave you  but don't go far my ta day won't be long

postal treats

It is like summer to finally here  Not much hooking has been going on    but two thing arrived in post today that cheered me up one was this lovely set of hooks . I know some people like the fancy padded hooks but for me I love aluminium . These are ideal the were less than four pounds and come in handy case so hopefully no more hooks lost to sofa.

The next thing to arrive was even more exciting . I entered my Hippocrates in a competition drawn monthly and it won the prize was this voucher for twenty pounds to spend in store
Not sure if any of you have ever been a abakhan but it's a crafters dream with craft barns covering many different crafts . There even a cafe and at area for kids so you can make a real.day of it . Think I will save this for my birthday next month th and get myself a treat
