The Wednesday Knit Crawl Photo Round-Up

Sorry it's taken me a week to get these up! I've just worked 7 days in a row and had to have a little bit of time for myself today before I got down to the knitty-gritty! (Hehe, like what I did there?) So here they are. The photos you've all been waiting for! The giveaway will be up tomorrow (I need to take pictures of the prizes that can be won first). Enjoy! The pictures are in reverse order too, with the first few of the finished simple knitted 1's that I knitted up at each location!


Stop 3: All the Fun of the Fair - see the blog post Zoe wrote up and more photos here

Stop 2: Prick Your Finger with lots of fun chats with Rachael and Louise!




Yummy tea and cakes from Rachael and Louise at Prick Your Finger (truly spoilt!)

Stop 1: Fabrications! Huge thanks to Barley, the awesome owner of the amazing shop!






Tommy helping Leona make her owl! Read about him over on Leona's Thrift-ola blog!

We're One!


As a quickie blog post here are the number 1's I knitted (or at least tried to) at each venue! We had such an awesome day at all the locations and I'm utterly exhausted but completely happy! All the wool I used to knit the ones was bought from each location too! There was sooooo much to choose from!


So until I'm able to spend a whole day blogging to fill you all in, which will probably be at some point this weekend, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone who has helped me throughout the past year and made yesterday such a fun and successful first birthday!

Wednesday Knit Will Be One!



Yes, it's true! Wednesday Knit will be turning the grand ol' age of one this month - 30th March to be exact!

You don't know how excited I am by this fact! I can't believe my little knitting club will be ONE!! To celebrate this momentus occassion in my knitting career/club life, I'm going to have a little party! But this won't just be any party. Oh, no.




We're going to have a knit crawl. A WEDNESDAY KNIT CRAWL to be precise! It's a bit like a pub crawl without the getting drunk park! Instead of going to a pub, I'm inviting you all to come visit some of the best wool shops in London with me. Already confirmed are Prick Your Finger in Bethnal Green, Fabrications on Broadway Market and All The Fun of the Fair in Kingly Court/Carnaby Street! And all these lovely, lovely ladies (and shops) are offering Wednesday Knit readers 10-20% discount!

The day will be spent blogging and tweeting from these fab locations and a couple more will be added on hopefully soon. The Wednesday Knit Crawl will end up at The Travel Bookshop in Notting Hill for our monthly Last Wednesday Knitting Club meeting at 6pm and from there we will just have to see how much birthday cake we can consume before 8:30pm!

The itinerary still needs to be confirmed andthere will be a discount voucher available to print off here closer to the time, but EVERYONE is welcome!

I hope you are as excited about this as I am! As soon as the itinerary is up, you can choose to come along for the whole day or just one or two locations or just the meeting in the evening! It's entirely up to you!

I'll be posting more often around here too this month, to celebrate the 1st birthday of Wednesday Knit and hopefully will have a few little surprises for you all along the way! I'll see you all soon!
