Visiting a show....

This weekend, we took a day out to visit the Creative Crafts Show being held at the Three Counties Showground in Malvern www.sccshows.co.uk It had been on for two days already and Saturday was the last. We took the motorhome as we haven't been out in it much and found somewhere to park have lunch before going into the show itself.

One of my main reasons for going this year, like last, was because the Knitting and Crochet Guild has a stand there but this time, I wasn't helping out.






The stand looked very good and the fact that it was so much bigger this year helped a good deal. Lots of people stopped by and I was told it had been quite hectic at times.

I sat for a while and had a chat and then set off to have a look around. I wasn't after any wool or fleece, or indeed, anything else but predictably, before I left, later on I did get my purse out.

There was lots of yarn for sale, buttons and haberdashery, jewellery and patchwork, together with some foods and some paper work. 





There were also a number of workshops each day.




In the end, I bought a very large Lucet and some yarn from New Forest Mohair. I bought some of their yarn last year and found it beautiful to knit with, although generally, I am not a great fan of this particular wool.






We bought a cake from the purveyors of such things and had a tea break, then returned to say goodbye to everyone and have a last look round. By that time, some stall holders were beginning to put their things away and outside, the rains had returned....
