Is it August already ... ?

Hello everyone

Wow ... I can't believe we are already into August, I think maybe for me anyway ............ the balmy heat of the heatwave was almost too hot to knit & thank goodness it's a bit cooler now and the needles are back in action  !

Please read on if you are happy for me to share  a little sorrow and pain as well as some good stuff too ..

Firstly some news of our Cobbs Yard Special Summer Day this Saturday 4th August

We were looking forward to having Helen (Josie Kitten) a Stylecraft Star Blogger with us but unfortunately she is under the weather and feeling poorly and has had to cancel her visit to us, we wish her a speedy recovery. Get better soon Helen x

We will instead be having lots of money saving yarn offers in the shop on the day .. more to follow soon on the Woolly updates page & our social media pages.  Our opening hours on Saturday are 9am to 4pm.

Here are a few of our yarn bargains for this Saturday..

Wendy Traditional Aran .... £2.99 (tweed 100g)

There will be other bargains, half price pattern books, free patterns, half price display garments & fabric discounts too ....

keep up to date on our Facebook, Instagram & Twitter pages

And just a taster of some new yarns that have already arrived

for Autumn and Winter from Katia

Finally, I wish to share with you some news about my Mum, lots of you who have been visiting the shop over the last 13 years or so would have seen her in the shop helping customers, teaching knitting, chatting, shelf filling and knitting of course !

She still comes into the shop from time to time but not as often, my lovely Mum is now suffering with Alzheimers, I do get asked how she is and I know that I have already shared this with some of you.

So if you see her in the shop or about town, please do say hello .... she may not recognise you or remember your name

but it would mean a lot to her to see a friendly smile and me too.
