Welcome to the newest member of the family!

Meet Inishowen Light, AKA Scottie, the latest member of the family. 4 years old, runner of 113 races; winner of 17, 2nd in 18. Now come to spend the rest of his days in peace in front of our Aga.


Greyhounds need to be kept warm, so obviously I have spotted a knitting opportunity.  For all you Ravelry users, I am going to knit this coat for Scottie in Jarol's Pure British Wool Aran yarn.

I think he will look gorgeous in it!

Jarol Pure British Wool Aran

Cafe Knit are delighted to now stock Jarol Pure British Wool Aran yarn!  One of the first 100% pure British yarns to be commercially produced in the UK for many years (British fleeces, spun in Yorkshire) - it is utterly gorgeous!  It still smells of sheep!!

It comes in 6 lovely colourways - all natural, and it would make gorgeous winter jumpers and accessories (hats, scarves etc).  It is featured in this months The Knitter magazine too (issue 36), a stunning sweater design called 'Trail' by Kyoko Nakayoshi.
