Ok folks, you have 2 days left to cast your vote in this year’s #BritishKnittingAndCrochetAwards . If you don’t see the representation there that you would please let Let's Knit magazine know. Their lists are created from your initial nominations, so you can make changes for next year.

I’m furious that the Government has launched an #AttackOnNature . I care deeply about nature, so they don’t do this in my name. I’ve written urgently to my MP. Will you do the same? Follow this link to find out how. action.rspb.org.uk/page/114089/ac…

While I slave over these hot pots, please entertain me with your textile themed film titles. Dye Hard for starters :D #ChangeAFilmTitle

Becca’s dyepans are steaming again. Leaf Peeping (pictured), Poison Garden, Lick My Frog, Virgo Fortis and Forest Floor are all on today’s dye list. With any luck we’ll have them in the shops by the weekend. #DyeList #DyeHard #HandDyedYarn

For anyone looking at yesterday’s Fair Isle hat in the making and thinking “I wish I could that”, well head over to our website eweandply.co.uk, search under ‘Workshops’ for Fair Isle and Steeking, and I’ll show you how. #KnittingWorkshop

A bit of #BusKnitting to wind up the day. A standard sort of cable jumper (pattern is an amalgamation of 2 or 3 old ones), worked in Hjertegarn New Life spun from recycled wool. It’s gonna be a warm one :) #BusKnitters #RecycledWool #NeverAWastedMoment

Just arrived! Locally made darning mushrooms and needle cases. Time to get your woollies in order for the colder months ahead. Darning Workshop dates coming soon. #DarningMushrooms #DarningWorkshop #LocallyMade

The latest news from our Knitter On The Road, roving reporter. Spindrift knits beautiful Fair Isle, and hats are the perfect thing to knit while you wait to be loaded/unloaded. #FairIsleFriday #PlacesYouCanKnit #KnitterOnTheRoad

How lovely our little shop in The Parade looks. Shelves full of interesting yarns for your Autumn projects. We’re downstairs and there is flat access to the left side of the building (there’s a steepish slope down to it) #ShrewsburyYarnShop #KnittingSeason

The latest in the lineup of new Ewe & Ply #handdyed sock colourways. This is Blue Midnight. A few skeins available. We had planned a big ole shop update today, with lots of new skeins. However we had a spectacular time at #YarnGathering and sold it all! More coming soon.

Spending the unexpected bank holiday in quiet productivity. Crochet jumper pattern slightly adapted from Whispering Pines in Modern Crochet Sweaters by Janine Myska. Yarn is Shropshire Aran in Hagthorn. #AQuietDay #CrochetSweaters #QuietContemplation

Today we were at Yarn Gathering, organised by Yarn O'clock and Kath Andrews and it Was FAB! Will go again :) Busy day, sold out of Poison Garden and Forest Floor, so if you were hoping for some its going to be a couple of weeks… #YarnGatheringMold #SmallWoolFair
