</div><div style="text-align: justify;">If there had been plenty more time to work on this part of the project it would have been interesting to cover all 6 concrete balls, but this is a big project in it's self - maybe next time.</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Until then, I'm really happy with the finished result as I have never covered anything spherical before. I really liked piecing the motives together and playing around with the arrangement. It's really made me thing ideas for future ArtYarn projects.

I hope that this will cover one of the concrete spheres at the entrance to Towneley Hall and I'll be making a visit hopefully on Monday before i go to the shop to size things up.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Here are a selection of the crocheted bits and bobs I've been making - since I took this picture on Wednesday I've made tonnes more! I'm really into improvising on existing doily patterns at the moment - maybe this could be the foundations for project in the future - free formed doilies!</div><br />

This weekend is the last weekend of scheduled workshops at the shop and I'm hoping that lots of tea cosies will come flooding in as many people who have popped into the hop have taken patterns away to work on at home.<br />
<br />
Tomorrow will be an exciting day in the shop becuase some of the Towneley Tea set collection will arrive for visitros to look at. We have a display case ready and waiting to house them all.<br />
<br />
Next weekend (12th & 13th June) will be the Tea Party event at Towneley Hall when all of the tea cosies will go on show for the public to admire .. more info on this event to some very soon.ArtYarnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09661656972331658654noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8622455604952109437.post-84199550349562205542010-05-30T10:26:00.000-07:002010-05-30T16:39:29.088-07:00Weekend 2 at the shop<div style="text-align: justify;">The shop has been full of activity this weekend with lots of people coming along to learn how to knit and crochet, how to follow a pattern and i demonstrated lots of new techniques to jazz up their tea cosies.<br />
Over the weekend we have had around 40 people in to the shop to find out more info and to take part in the project. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">One of the most wonderful comments, which I have heard a few times from different workshop participants over the past few days, is that this project has inspried people to pick up their needles again after not knitting for years, it didn;t take long for those people to rememeber how it's done!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Many people have said that they thought no one knitted any more, that they thought it was a forgotten craft and that it's really nice to see this project happening in their town centre. I'm really happy that through this project people will continue to knit, some ladies have even said that they would like to start their own knitting club in their local communities after attending the workshops.</div><br />
Here are some snaps from over the weekend:<br />

Lots of people said that this particular tea cosy has a quirky personality about it... i'm not sure why! but was flattered by the comments. I was inspired by the earthy tones and colours featured on some of the Towneley Tea Pots and by some of the decorative trims painted onto the tea pots.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">Thank you to every one who came along to the shop this weekend, i'm really looking forward to next weekend when we shoud have some more stunning tea cosies to show. I have given out lots of patterns to people interested in the project but unable to attend the sessions in the shop. </div><br />

We are joping that these pieces of knitting will stir up some interest for our residence at the old car shop in Burnley Town Centre.<br />
Next week we'll be in Burnley town centre setting up our workspace in the shop and we'll be out and about knitting in local venues around the town. Come and join us !<br />

We are hoping that this will inspire people to come and see what we are making at The Open Shop in Burnley Town Centre and hopefully take part in our project.<br />
<br />
There will be a small trail of yarn bombs for you to discover from the 10th May ... see if you can spot them all and let us know what you think by leaving us a comment on the blog.<br />
<br />
For now, here is a little sneeky peek at one of the yarn bombs in progress..<br />
