And, it’s looking to be the biggest event for us yet. The lovely FibreFest people have not only given us a stall to distribute p/hop patterns to you lucky people, have not only let us host the knitting emporium, but have also given us responsibility for the multicoloured swap shop!

Here, you can bring your old stash, a bag of fibre a set of needles or an old pattern or book and swap it for something magical and new (or nearly new at least). What we really need is for people to spread the word that this is happening and get anyone that is coming to bring any swap items they might have…

AND there will be a new pattern! Anni has donated a shawl pattern to p/hop although we are cutting it so fine timing-wise, it hasn’t even got a name yet and a competition was had to try and find one (pics and comp here)! It looks amazing.

Joy's Forest Canopy Shoulder Shawl

AND LAST BUT DEFINITELY NOT LEAST….. Joy has made another shawl to raffle! And it is beautiful – check it out here. As with all things p/hop, raffle tickets will be in exchange for a donation of your choice, although my mum would love this so I think I’ll probably fix the competition (JOKE).

Come see p/hop at FibreFest
