I'm thrilled with my charity shop finds..

A beautiful hand thrown bowl from Porthleven a bargain at just £5, Two adorable egg cosie's, knitted so beautifully for just 10p each. An emu knitting gauge reminded me of my mum, and a bell knitting gauge - I have a plan for this, all will be revealed later in the year.. And a row counter that was so cute I had to have it..

  1. So lovely! I especially like the bell knitting gauge, so look forward to hearing what you do with it. Charity shops are called opportunity shops where I come from, and it's great to see things being re-used, rather than added to already over-full landfill X

  2. Lovely finds. Coincidence or what but I just bought one of those 'bell' knitting needle gauges! If you need another one, I can send it to you. It's not like I really needed another needle gauge anyway! lol Love the shininess of those bowls.It's our little Three Harbours Arts Festival this week - you'd love it - I do. x

    1. I'm on the hunt for the bell needle gauges Joan, if you come across any on your travels, cheaply of course, get them for me and I'll settle up with you.

  5. I would have wanted that bowl too! I love handmade pottery and wood pieces and would definitely collect them if I had room.
