Hallo on the longest day of the year, which is a bit of a misnomer given the last few months. But this one is official, the longest day, the shortest night - have those blackout blinds at the ready.

I have already read online someone saying the nights will be drawing in soon and I was flabbergasted, not only because summer is half way through already but because it feels like half the year has gone missing. Such has been 2020 so far.

Anyway. I have fantastic news: Fankle Yarns will be reopening on Wednesday 1st July at 10 am. YAY!

It’s been a while, not all of it productive, but the shop has new yarns, new fittings and a smiling host all ready to welcome you back. There will be a couple of Covid rules to follow:

use handsanitizer provided,
only one customer/couple at a time,
card payments preferred,

but I hope this will not deter you from perusing our gorgeous yarns. I am sooo looking forward to being back in my happy place!

Classes will be unavailable for now pending further government information, and the Knit and Natter will remain virtual for the time being (keep an eye out for good weather, we will be having al fresco sessions at Prestwick Cross on Sundays with favourable conditions).

For those who don’t know, our Knit and Natter is held on Zoom (www.zoom.us) and you click on Join a Meeting, and use the ID 984 6978 1148 and then password 016818 from 3pm on Sunday afternoons (GMT)

Phew. Think that’s all for now. I hope your are coming out of this lockdown with optimism and not too many extra pounds (I wish I could say the same!).

Can’t wait to see you all again,

Cheers,

Kathleen
