Why WWKIP Day Treasure Hunt returns

As World Wide Knit in Public Day is fast approaching we tried to come up with something that would intrigue all of you public knitters out there. But then again – why fix something that ain’t broken. We had such a blast last year, following all the Instagram posts that kept popping up during the day – and judging by the photos shared, it seemed to us that the participants of our East London Yarn Trail had a great time too! Just have a look at these:

So we managed 13 out of 19 stops in the #eastlondonyarntriangle . Partner in crime was my husband Matthew. He patiently sat in all three shops whislt I squidged yarn. Here's my final photo. Didn't think you could crochet on a swing? Think again!
