It's that time of the week again, what has everyone got on their needles and hooks this week? 🧶

Socks for me, they're so easy for me to pick up and put down in the shop without getting lost with the pattern 🧶

✨ It’s finally here — and just what you’ve been waiting for! ✨

🧶 Four brand-new colours have arrived in the ever-popular King Cole Firefly Aran range! 🌈

These gorgeous new shades are sure to be just as popular as the rest of the range, so don’t leave it too late! 👀

💕 A HUGE thank you to everyone who supported our Breast Cancer Awareness Day at The Button Box today! 💕

We haven’t done a final count just yet, just in case anyone would like to grab some last-minute raffle tickets tomorrow, but we think we’ve had a very successful day! 🎀

A massive thank you to everyone who very kindly popped in with a donation, bought a raffle ticket, or stopped by to have a go at the tombola. Every little bit of support means so much to us. ❤️

A huge thank you also goes to Liz, Rosetta, Heather, Becky, Sue, Chloe and, of course, Louis for helping to get everything organised and for manning the shop today. We couldn’t have done it without you! 🥰

Another big thank you to everyone who donated tombola prizes and baked cakes, especially Sue Heron, Becky Nunn, Heather Leadham, Liz Heron and Rose Glentworth. And I’m so sorry if I’ve forgotten anyone — it really is appreciated. ❤️

We would also like to say thankyou to our supplier King Cole Yarn & Pattern Supplier who kindly donated bags, pens and other goodies in support of Brest Cancer Awareness.🎀

We’ll let you all know once the raffle has been drawn, so keep your fingers crossed! 🤞🎟️

Good luck everyone, and thank you once again for helping us make the day such a lovely success! 💕🎀
