Staying cool

in the hot weather involves staying indoors while the sun is out. It seems ironic that knitting is a lovely way to relax.

Winding yarn the traditional way.


For a couple of hours yesterday morning, that is just what I did with a few friends from Hitchin Stitchin'.

The Sun Hotel staff were busy with a Conference in the meeting rooms and a wedding party in the dining room and ballroom, so they offered us the coffee lounge area at the end of the Reception area.








Jane gave me a beautiful lace cowl, knitted from some of the odds and ends of Posh Yarn I'd given her a few weeks ago -  a delightful surprise that added to my feeling of well-being.





One of our members was absent as she was preparing for an art exhibition in which she has several paintings for sale.


By the end of yesterday's private preview party, she had already sold two paintings.







We're a kind and multi-talented bunch of knitters. But then I've known that for a long time.
