I went to Wells in Somerset today, mainly because I’d heard about an amazing wool shop called Mandy Wools there. And it lived up to the hype! It’s a big L shape about 3 times the size of any wool shop I’ve been in and they were extremely helpful even when I was being completely indecisive. I bought some mixed buttons from a charity box, some multicoloured ones to replace some that the paint is peeling on a black top and 8 balls of Sirdar Snuggly Baby Bamboo so that I can knit myself a short jumper. I couldn’t find a pattern in the shop and believe me we DID look so I’ve settled on this one from Simply Knitting a couple of months ago called Tequila Sunrise. I was originally going to make it in stocking stitch but now as I’ve tried the pattern out I think I might go for that and it’ll make knitting it a bit more interesting.
Wells itself is very pretty, has a good selection of shops (in one I got a reversible recycled wrap around skirt for £8.50!) for a small town, a lovely cathedral and a very good market. It was definitely worth the trip!
