I love the Ripple Stitch tutorial. It’s easy to follow. Though it’s been a while since I visited your site, I was surprised to see you no longer operate the yarn shop. There’s so much to learn here. Well done
Hi! I do still operate the yarn shop but haven’t linked the site on here at the moment, the yarn shop URL is http://www.snufflebeanyarn.co.uk if you did want to visit it.
