And to round off the series of wedding/honeymoon posts, only getting-on-for-two-months-since-we-got-married, here are my honeymoon purchases!
First of all from the
Yarn Gathering in Coventry. 7 balls of
Grignasco Merino Gold in burgundy (and one in grey which isn't pictured). This is really good value, machine washable 100% merino wool. Hopefully to make the
Essential Cardigan, from Interweave Knits Summer 2010.
Then from
Warwick Wools 8 balls of
Sirdar Supersoft Aran to make jumpers for the nephews for Christmas. Although it's 100% acrylic it doesn't feel like it. And a ball of
Regia Hand-Dye Effect sock yarn, 'cos it looked fun.
And
this pattern for the Supersoft Aran jumpers for the nephews.
Warwick was also good for bookshops, I bought one of these from the secondhand bookshop, and the other one in
Warwick Books!
The final purchase, from
Web of Wool in Leamington Spa has already found its way across the Atlantic as part of
Tabitha's thank you present for the wedding shawl she made me!

A lovely bunch of wooliness!
Some lovely yarn there and the jumper pattern is very nice.
