Thank you to the attendees of the mosaic crochet workshop at Wool Monkey last night.

We had a fab evening, you are all very talented and perfect students!

If you missed the workshop, don’t worry, we will be running it again. Just keep an eye out for dates for the next one, or come and see us in the yarn shop in Pen*stone.

We've had a great summer here at Wool Monkey but Autumn is rapidly approaching.

So, from next week, 24th August, the Wool Monkey yarn shop in Pen*stone will be back to our normal opening hours.

This means we will be open until 4pm most days once again.

It's only a little change but it gives you all an extra 4 hours a week or yarn buying time!

See you soon

I had to test this new yarn we have in the Wool Monkey shop.

Guess what? I loved it!

It’s silky and soft to work with and shimmers beautifully.

I might have to test it again 😉

The pattern and yarn are both available in the shop - so come down and have a squish - it’s even better when you see it for real!

Just sneakily testing the new yarn we have in the Wool Monkey shop this week.

I’m liking it so far.

Will show you more later…
