Did you go to Wonderwool?

I had a great time. After realising I still haven't knit up all the gorgeous yarn I bought there last year (oops!) I was determined to stick to things I really, really can't live without.

It wasn't a sensible shopping list.

My goal (said out loud to reasure my boyfriend before leaving) was to find buttons for the two cardigans I've finished recently (a February Lady Sweater and a Nautical Cardigan from Rowan All Seasons At the Mill) and the one I've got on the needles (Cream Caramel, the cover project from issue 42) I did hit that target – and then run past it a bit!

In theory, I could swap the buttons round every so often to make the most of my fab finds from The Button Lady, but I don't think I'd get round to it! I think I'll just have to cast on another cardi – I rather fancy the hoodie from More Big Girl Knits...

Of course, my shopping (and browsing!) didn't stop at buttons and we'll have more updates about the show later in the week. In the meantime, we want to know:

Did you go to Wonderwool? Any hot shopping tips for readers who couldn't make it?
