A couple of weeks ago I went on a road trip with Lisa to Toft. She booked us on the Chablis the Unicorn workshop for my birthday, how awesome is that!!
It’s over 2 hours drive away and we got there extra early so we could have a good look around the shop and have a visit with the alpacas, but typical British weather meant it was raining so we decided against the 45 minute walk!
We spent ages looking at all the different animals before the workshop started, squishing the yarn and stroking pompoms.
Once we were seated in the workshop space (which is situated in the corner of the shop) we met the lady running the workshop and found out that the workshop wasn’t just for Chablis, there was people making horses and Alpacas too. Some of the guests had booked on to do one thing but decided to swap to something easier and some people were upgrading their yarn from DK to aran (we decided to stick to DK), all in all this took just over 30 minutes so whilst we waited to get our pattern so we could start we took pics of the animals above us in parachutes and the GIANT giraffe behind us
Once we all started crocheting the room went very quiet whilst we sorted our increases, as soon as people started doing rounds with no increases we started chatting again! I think I managed about 14 rounds in total as we stopped towards the end of the workshop for tea and cake, we were then handed a cute tote bag to carry our yarn home in and that was the end of the workshop.
I’m super busy at the moment working on our new Knitcraft CAL and an amigurumi design for Marriners but I hope to find the time to finish my lovely Chablis before the September Crochet Sanctuary comes around!
Thanks for stopping by!
