A Very Quick Thank You..... <3

Janie's Quick Hello!
​

I hope that this email finds you all well and that you are looking forward to the weekend!

I have just returned from a lovely couple of days at Black Sheep Wools in Warrington where I taught two day long workshops, covering the techniques of beaded crochet and designing a small crochet flower. I had a lovely time in the company of fellow crocheters and the fabulous team at the Black Sheep HQ. If you are anywhere near the store and have a bit of spare time on Saturday, then you might fancy popping along to their West Yorkshire Spinners event, or, if you fancy doing something towards the end of the month, they also have an afternoon tea event with Sue Stratford planned. You can find contact details for the store (which is also one of my 3 'Flagship' Janie Crow Stockists) by following this link.

The weather forecast is looking pretty dismal here for the weekend, so I am hoping to spend some time on the sofa with my crochet. I am also hoping to get a chance to make some yogurt as I stumbled across some videos on Youtube that show how to make it in the slow cooker. It looks really easy, so I am going to give that a go. I will let you know in my 'proper' newsletter next week, how I have got on. Who says life doesn't begin at 50!!!!

The reason for me dropping into your in box this Friday afternoon is to say a big thank you to all those of you who took the time to nominate me within the Favourite Crochet Designer category of the 2019 British Knitting & Crochet Awards. The full list of nominees can be found by following this link and simply by submitting your choices within a speedy survey you can be in with the chance of winning some goodies in the prize draw.

We had quite a lot of feedback about the S and Z twist yarn piece in last week's newsletter - I am glad that so many of you found it useful and I want to also say thank you again for all those of you who wanted to talk about the Dolce and Gabbana copyright infringement. I have replied to all your emails - your support means so much.

As always, if you want to get in touch please hit reply and tell me what is on your mind. I will be back next week with June's Friday Feature Newsletter and hope that you have a great week between now and then....
