As expected in November, Christmas knitting is in full swing! Bells are ringing, Santa is ho-ho-ing, yarn bands are ripping, and needles are clacking. The chilly weather is the perfect excuse to stay in and knit some festive cheer.
This month, I have exciting updates for you. I've been working with the new Yarnalia Wonder DK yarn, and I have news about the Harrogate show. I'll also give you a peek inside the pages of this month's Simply Knitting magazine, and showcase some tea cosies you might like to knit at home.
Let's get started!
All the important information and links are below.
You will find both this year and last year's calendars on the TeaCosyFolk website here.
It's last year's calendar with the Poppy and Mushroom chocolate orange cosies.
The Handbell Ringer Tea Cosy will be on the website as a downloadable PDF on 14th November.
You will find the help video showing you how to knit the holly leaves and berries on YouTube, here.
