Knitting Belts and Sheeksins..

It's the visitor season and we are all busy entertaining our guests. The highlight for the New Zealanders with us this week was of course a visit to the Museum and a witty and informative tour lead by Paul.
They were curious about the knitting belts we sell. Our visitors had never seen one before, and I realised that while  I have explained them to many people over the years, visitors are always fascinated to see them in use by Museum  staff members who demonstrate knitting, both lace and Fair Isle.

Cathy and Linda will be using knitting belts at a "Sheeksin" on Tuesday 9th July at 2.30 in the Museum.

A Sheeksin is an informal and friendly get together to chat about a particular subject over tea and coffee.
