Lydia's shop is expanding fast and she has added some lovely new yarns since my last visit (possibly something to do with the deep discussions she was in with the trade reps when I bumped into her at the Stitches trade fair in Birmingham in February, perhaps?). The shop is located in a beautiful Victorian arcade (yes, Yorkshire had malls way before the Trafford Centre and Bluewater!) and there are some super shops in there - vintage clothes, jewellery, cookware - and not forgetting the tattoo parlour if you feel so inclined!
And here are Lisa's tiger feet in progress....
---and the finished article(s) - beautifully completed (and stylishly modelled!) - thanks Lisa : )

Oooh! I can knit on new yarn while they tattoo me! Looking forward to it already. :D
You would so love the arcade and the traditional market, too. Huddersfield is a very old town that owed much of its prosperity to its woollen textile history. Lots of "dark, satanic mills" (sadly most now apartments), but a beautiful place to visit. Still on the temp. tattoos personally but will watch in awe while you have yours!
Some day I will def get a real tat and it'll be wonderful. For now I've still only got the stones for henna ones. Considering the fact that I still like to rotate my hair color every other month... (well parts of it at least.) But when I break down and do it I can think of no one better to keep me company!
