Yesterday was quite an interesting one to say the least!ITV West country emailed me last week to ask if they could film a knit club for a programme to be shown on ITV this Friday 15 August at 6.00pm

Well I thought it might be fun so of course I said yes! I was flattered that they had picked Spin A Yarn to film. It turned into a marathon 4 hour session from which they will pick about 1 or 2 minutes apparently.

Yesterday morning wasn't officially a knit club day but everyone was eager to come along so before I knew it there were 10 ladies sitting around the table with their various projects.

Clare Manning the presenter arrived and joined the camera man and the soundman as well as Ali & I.

As you all know I have a very small shop!

Claire Crompton came along to teach Claire, Anneken was knitting her exquisite socks with her Mum and daughter, also there were Christine, Mary, Sue, Jackie, Becky.

At least 10 customers arrived along with a delivery of 2 huge bags of yarn from Sirdar.

My shop was by now looking exceedingly small!!

My worst moment was when the sound man decided to fix a mike so that I could be interviewed.  As anyone of you probably knows I can chat happily to anyone all day in the shop, however.... when i was provided with a mike and asked questions I just went bright red and couldn't think what on earth I was saying. I'm dreading watching the show on Friday! 

Claire & Anneken did very well however and Claire Manning seemed to be genuinely enjoying learning to knit. In fact she was doing very well by the end of the session.

Do watch but please excuse whatever I'm saying as I really can't remember!
