Birthday Yarn

Today I turned 34, so to celebrate my birthday I decided to take a trip to Guyra which is about 30 minutes north west from where I live. Why Guyra? Heres why...

This huge wool shed marks the entrance to the town of Guyra, love the look of it! Anyway, situated in Guyra is a lovely wool shop called Black Sheep Wool 'n' Wares, the sole reason for my visit! So after much browsing and umming and arring I ended up buying a garments worth of Debbie Bliss Prima yarn, which is 80% Bamboo and 20% Merino.....

I'm not sure what I will make yet, but I've had fun this afternoon playing around with different stitch patterns, this one I particularly like...

All in all a perfect way to spend my birthday!
