Hello! I hope you don’t mind going on another little outing today. This time I’m taking you to the first outdoor fair of the year in this part of the world. It’s a lovely small-scale event organized around three themes: Lifestyle (bags, soaps, home accessories etc.), regional food and wool.
We’re mainly here for the woolly theme, of course, but let’s pay my knitting-group friend Simone (aka Mevrouw Polska) a visit first. Long ago, she dreamed of owning one of those beautiful blue-and-white Polish teapots one day, when she could afford it. Well, she has one now and didn’t stop at that. She grew a small business importing and selling earthenware from the Boleslawiec region in Poland. There’s always something new to see.
I really enjoyed going on this outing. I actually spotted the hand knits in the pottery picture. I also loved seeing the pottery. I loved the white with blue polka dot tea pot – so cute – must be because it’s blue. The labels the yarn maker designed herself are so cute. Your grandson really got a lot of use out of his bootees. His pair of new bootees – turns out I already had that pattern in my queue.
Fabulous post – really enjoyed reading it.
Blue is your favourite colour, too, isn’t it? What a coincidence that you had already found the same bootee pattern. Glad you enjoyed the outing!
He Marijke, wat een gezellige blog en ook leuk te lezen over mijn medestandhouders. Daar heb ik eigenlijk nooit tijd voor helaas.
Wat een prachtige slofjes voor jullie kleinzoon.
Dank je. Dat snap ik wel; het is altijd druk bij je kraam. Kon je nu mooi achteraf via mijn blog de markt nog eventjes bekijken. De slofjes zijn echt een leuk patroontje. Als je nog eens wat zoekt om te maken voor een kleintje echt een aanrader.
